The Stuhrling Brand Story

With dedication to the heritage of Swiss watchmaking, Stuhrling Original timepieces appeal to the most discriminating taste at reasonable prices. The company has roots dating back to the 1800's when Switzerland emerged as the global leader in watchmaking. Stuhrling Original remains committed to its mission of preserving the high standards set in Switzerland manufacturing all of their fine timepieces in their Swiss-owned factory! Each and every model conveys an inimitable story with extraordinary style. You'll find heirloom selections for both men and women that even the most astute watch collector will cherish and admire.

In the workshops of Stuhrling Original, the unit specializing in mechanical movements, component selection, assembly, lubrication, adjustment and testing creates horological wonders entirely under vigilant attention of Swiss ownership and supervision. It is these workshops that produce the mechanical engines that are famous for meeting the highest existing criteria in there category. Starting with the main plate, the assembly process is performed in several consecutive stages up until anchoring the balance spring, which sets the watch into motion. Assembling a Stuhrling Original mechanical automatic movement comprises no less than 30 checkpoints, spread throughout the assembly process. Adjusting the angle of lift of the pallets, centering the balance-spring, poising the balance are just a few examples of these checkpoints; of which all are designed to enhance the performance of each movement. The movement must meet no less than seven criteria, including a mean variation in rate which is the highest standard in the industry in its class.

Stuhrling Original cases are distinguished by their technical complexity, their high-end aesthetic appeal and the quality of their finish. The watch cases are made from antimagnetic 316L surgical grade stainless steel, an extremely sophisticated alloy designed to stand up to intensive use. The rough parts, known as "middlecases" are blanked from a metal bar using a high-performance press. They then undergo eight successive stamping operations of a strength increasing gradually from 20 to 85 tons. Before each swaging operation, the middlecase is refired at a temperature of 1100 degrees Celsius, so as to temporarily reduce the hardness to a total stamping pressure of more than 400 tons. Finishing the cases then calls for fifteen polishing operations, all performed by hand alternating with nine baths guaranteeing immaculate cleanliness. Other components of the cases, such as rotating bezels or rider tabs also require a meticulous finish. The components of the cases are finally assembled by hand and rigorously tested.

Each Stuhrling Original dial has been designed to enable optimal read-off at a glance, while adding an element of artistic design. Stuhrling Original's dials are blanked from a brass plate and two cylindrical feet are soldered below to ensure security with the movement. Polishing operations, creating special effects through the use of vintage hydraulic German machines, and electroplating are just some of the more than forty operations required to make most StuhrlingOriginal dials. The transparent protective coating is applied in an immaculately clean environment before the various inscriptions are transfer printed using a gelatin pad which takes an impression from an inked block. On many of the dials the hour markers are either individually applied by hand or embossed into the dial and then topped with a special dye. The application of Super Luminova is performed by artisans with a nozzle pen connected to a high-pressure pipe which calls for intense concentration. Once finished, each dial undergoes careful aesthetic scrutiny under extreme magnification, as well as technical testing, to ensure it complies with all predefined dimensions and specifications.

Through meticulous labor, rigorous testing and examination of each timepiece by expert horologists, the vision of the Stuhrling Original timepiece is brought to life inside our workshops, where...

Unique Watch...doesn't need batteries
This self-winding skeleton watch will never need batteries! It is a rather large watch, with subtle heart designs etched into the dial. The ribbon covered leather band has a slight shimmer to it which is very pretty. Because of the size of the watch, it might not look good on a petite lady.

Update: I now own this watch in two colors and love them both. The watch pictured has a light rose gold bezel & darker rose gold face which surprisingly goes with most of my clothing. This color works nicely with brown, brick, varying shades of pink, dark red, and coral. Probably even more colors, but those came to my mind first. I've received several compliments on this watch...even from strangers.

Update: After almost 1 1/2 years, this watch still keeps great time, & looks almost like new. The band still looks great. Also, because it is self-winding...your wrist and hand movement keep it wound...if you don't wear it daily, you'll need to set the time and re-wind it a little bit before you wear it again.

Stunning.

If you think this watch is beautiful in the picture than you will be floored when you receive it. I wore this watch for the first time today and I have already had three people comment on how much they liked it. I am also happy to note that the watch is classy enough to wear to a corporate work environment.

This watch is shipped flat (instead of wrapped around a holder) and is in a beautiful gift box. I thought it was also interesting that the back of the watch is clear and allows you to see all of the gears moving inside.

Very pleased & will be buying other watches from Stuhrling in the future.

My New Watch and Keepsake
I had seen this watch, Women's Cupid II, as a Lightning Deal on Amazon a couple weeks ago. I have not worn a watch for years. But, the unique beauty of this watch and the well known reputation of Stuhrling, I decided to order this watch.

Wow, a true beauty! Besides keeping Father Time, I feel it completes my outfit. It has become part of my daily casual attire.

The package has been described by previous viewers and they are right. And, yes, the watch is much more beautiful than the picture.
This watch is comfortable and the band is genuine leather. The colors are soft. Their web site has different watch colors, too. http://www.stuhrling.com/home.cfm
One can see the clockwork pulsations inside. I did not notice on the web page, but there are small hearts along the background by the numbers. I read this self-winding watch will last around 30 hours or one must reset the time. The incredible details of this well-designed watch is a keepsake I can wear daily.

These watches sold quickly and am glad that Amazon decided to restock them.
