Take a Closer Look at Raymond Weil Watches
Founded in 1976, Raymond Weil watches have impressed the world over and have quickly become a household name, and for good reason. Raymond Weil watches are Swiss quality and the precision of the watches are unique as well as very elegant. Raymond Weil watches are guaranteed to attract attention because of the way they look externally, but it is what is on the inside that is truly amazing. The main motto of Mr. Raymond Weil was to manufacture watches that had a novel concept and unique design. Savoir-Faire, independence, creativity and aesthetics were the founding values of the Raymond Weil brand.
Once the brand was launched and its popularity increased the company wanted to expand its business and increase its competiveness without losing the family identity. In 1982 Olivier Bernheim joined the family business. He modernised the structure of the organisation and took charge of the marketing and communication departments within the company. The company then started to have a greater influence in the cultural sense mainly because of the launch of the Amadeus collection which was named after Mozart and released the same time as the film Amadeus.
For its 10th anniversary they launched the Othello collection and the timepieces in this collection were sophisticated and had avant-garde technology. In 1988 the Traviata collection was launched with timepieces that were bold and tastefully designed and in 1990 the Parisfal collection came about including watches that were subtle and made of noble materials. The Parisfal collection is popular to this day and features innovative designs coupled with meticulous finishes. Another popular Raymond Weil watch collection is the Tango and is popular amongst both men and women and was introduced in 1995. Other collections from Raymond Weil include Noemia, Maestro, Freelancer and the Shine collection which is a watch collection for ladies.
Raymond Weil watches are small mechanical machines and are super functional. Each watch is constructed with meticulous care and that is why they are masters in the field of watch making. One of the factors that make Raymond Weil watches so precise and beautiful is the use of precious jewels in the movements. You may be wondering how precious jewels can play a role in the precision of a watch. Mechanical watches have many moving parts that have to work together in harmony to make the clock run properly. Over time a mixture of dust and oil would cause abrasions and this would cause the watch’s movement to stop. This meant that watchmakers needed to find substance that was harder than bronze to stop this abrasion. This is where rubies and diamonds came into play and have quickly become a valuable part of fine, high quality Raymond Weil watches.
