Bertolucci

Robert Chopard and Marcel Michelotti started Bertolucci watches in a little workshop years ago. When Marcel married Remo Bertolucci, they took over the business and the Italian style and Swiss craftsmanship and quality was merged to create elegant, high quality watches.

The Bertolucci watch collection has three major groups or collections: Serena, Vir, Uomo, and they are all crafted with a variety of steel, 14-k gold and other precious stones to make them unique and one of a kind. Even though there are men's Bertolucci watches as well as women's Bertolucci watches, there has always been much emphasis on the ladies watches, always trying to add more feminine aspects to their collections.

The Bertolucci Serena, always a top seller, has taken center stage yet again with the changes made to the Serena Steel by adding a bracelet. The Serena with bracelet is available with mother of pearl dials and set in diamonds to give it the most elegant breathtaking look ever. The models that always had the custom-made leather strap are now replaced with lizard. A very fancy watch is the Bertolucci Poeme gold ladies watch, which has an 18K yellow gold case on the black patent leather strap and diamond buckler. This watch, which is around $7,000, offers the typical mother-of-pearl dial with diamond markers and a sapphire crystal.

The Bertolucci Uomo has some wonderful innovative changes made as well. The Uomo Large has a diameter of 42mm with a certified automatic chronometer movement. It is available in either steel or 18-karat gold with a matching bracelet and a diamond set bezel. It is also water resistant to 100 meters. The Bertolucci Vir collection has some new additions, one of them being Vir Lady. Vir Lady is made of steel with pebble like bracelet links and the bezel sets within a single row of diamonds. The dial is a mother of pearl design with 11 diamond markers. The Vir comes in your choice of 18-karat yellow or pink gold and combination of steel and gold version.

One of the men's Bertolucci watches that is popular is the Bertolucci men's strap watch, a lightweight mechanical watch that offers a black crocodile strap, brushed steel case and steel bezel with white dial and silver colored hands. This watch is on the pricey side around $4,000, although all the Bertolucci watches come with some sort of warranty. Another classy looking Bertolucci watch for men is the Uomo men's watch with the stainless steel case, automatic certified chronometer movement and mother of pearl dial. Although, it's not quite as fancy or costly as the men's strap watch, it is every bit as elegant. Many consumers that love the look of Bertolucci watches but not the cost are looking into Bertolucci watch replicas.
