RAYMOND WEIL Men's Maestro Gold-Tone Stainless Steel Watch with Black-Leather Strap

Raymond Weil, one of the last independent Swiss luxury watch companies, is located in the heart of Geneva, Switzerland. Uniquely, the company has remained a family business and is currently managed by Raymond Weil's son-in-law Olivier Bernheim, and his sons, Elie and Pierre Bernheim.

Despite the company's current popularity, these high standards have not relaxed, and each Raymond Weil watch passes 350 different checks before being put on the market. Raymond Weil's in-depth knowledge of horology has earned him several prestigious recognitions, including being named President of the Watch Manufacturer's Union of Geneva, Vice President of the Watch Industry's Training Center in Lausanne, member of the Watchmakers' Federation, and President of the Exhibitors' Committee of the World Watch-making and Jewelry Exhibition at Basel.

The company's signature motto--"Independence is a state of mind"--is a reminder of its desire to conceive timepieces that are different, elegant and modern, while at the same time displaying all the rigor of watchmaking excellence. This is a classic Maestro timepiece from Raymond Weil. Also self-winding automatic, it has a blue dial with the date, black leather strap and gold-tone casing.

Raymond Weil opened his watch-making business in 1976 during a very difficult period for mechanical watches. At the time, quartz watches were swiftly replacing their predecessors as a more affordable and equally accurate alternative. However, due to his 26 years of experience in the industry, Raymond Weil's design concepts, impeccable, mechanical movements, and commitment to entirely Swiss-made products earned him a clientele that continued to expand over the past 37 years.

As for the product details, this is a round watch in gold-tone stainless steel featuring a blue dial with contrasting gold-tone hands and markers. It has a Swiss-automatic movement with an analog display and an antireflective-sapphire crystal dial window. The watch is water-resistant up to 165 feet (50M) and features an alligator-leather strap with a buckle closure.
