Music Maest ro
Independence has been a state of mind since 1976 for RAYMOND WEIL Genève. Founded by my father-in-law, the Company is one of the last few Swiss independent family-owned businesses, situated in Geneva, home of Switzerland’s most prestigious watchmakers and of the industry’s topmost expertise.
With the arrival of two successive generations at the helm, RAYMOND WEIL succeeded in evolving over time while preserving its DNA. The Brand brings together all the elements of excellence of the Swiss luxury watchmaking industry and aims at synchronizing the rhythms of tradition and innovation.
True to i ts her i tage, RAYMOND WEIL stands out through i ts creat iv i ty, i ts watchmaking know-how, i ts independence of mind and i ts unique universe inspired by the ar ts and music. Music def ini te ly plays a major role in the Company’s source of inspiration. In a highly competitive watch industr y, the Brand has imposed i tsel f l ike a true orchestra conductor, with collections of prestigious watches named after grand masters, outstanding opera melodies or evoking its fascinating history: parsifal, nabucco, maestro, tango and jasmine. This infatuation with the arts and music has been handed down f rom generat ion to generat ion wi th in our fami ly, together wi th the watchmaking know-how.
Conce iv ing a f ine watch or composing a mus ica l masterp iece is a l l about real people craf t ing a beautiful music or t imepiece to be enjoyed. Swiss made precision, craftsmanship and musical inspiration are the essence of the RAYMOND WEIL Brand today.
Let the wor lds of mus ic and watchmak ing come together and open RAYMOND WEIL’s music box…
Olivier Bernheim President & CEO
The Mus ic Box
From its early beginnings, RAYMOND WEIL has been imbued with a deep affinity for music. With such a heritage, RAYMOND WEIL’s slogan “precision is my inspiration” has flowed naturally. More than a simple quote, this slogan expresses the whole universe of the Brand, bridging the comparison between the ar ts, music and luxury watchmaking. Inspirat ion is what is found at the base of each work of ar t; precision is the indispensable condition required for achieving excellence.
To fur ther strengthen its commitment to the world of music and to reinforce the image of the Company as one h igh ly invo lved in th is industr y, RAYMOND WEIL continuously supports young artists that represent the future heritage of the Brand. Through live music platforms that help emerging talents all around the world, RAYMOND WEIL confirms its deep attachment to all music genres and invites you to discover the musicians of the future.
By sponsor ing the greatest musical shows and competi t ions, such as the BRIT AWARDS, RAYMOND WEIL also celebrates the very best within the music industry. Thanks to its relationship with key established music players, RAYMOND WEIL often creates exclusive limited edition timepieces with renowned artists, all proceeds being donated to a charity of their choice. In addition, the Brand is now the official timing partner of some of the world’s most iconic music venues and offers its clients the opportunity to take part in unique music events.
RAYMOND WEIL has always been commit ted to noble causes, dear to the family’s hear t. The Brand’s heritage, steeped in a passion for music and the ar ts, lends itself naturally to par tnerships with organizations that support the most vulnerable children and adults through the power of music. RAYMOND WEIL proudly supports Nordoff Robbins music therapy charity and the VH1 Save The Music Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to restoring instrumental music education programs in America’s public schools.
The Music that was yesterday’s source of inspiration today becomes the vehicle of the values, the know-how and enthusiasm of the music loving watchmaker - to the extent that it becomes an integral part of the Company’s marketing. From here on, Elie Bernheim, Director, talks of “music marketing”, a concept that allows him to speak both to his partners and his clients at the same time.
“Precision is my inspiration” embodies the Brand’s unique cultural universe and know-how per fectly, reinforcing all the legitimacy of RAYMOND WEIL as a veritable watchmaking Maestro.
A Swiss Brand
RAYMOND WEIL brings together all the elements of excellence of the Swiss luxury watchmaking industry.
Precision, quality, reliability, nobility and the technical nature of the materials are among the many standards that the Geneva-based Brand combines with aestheticism and refinement in the creation of its models. Switzerland’s centur ies of careful ly handed-down watchmaking sk i l ls and know-how are harnessed by RAYMOND WEIL and reflected in its choices and developments of mater ials, components and craf tsmen in al l the stages of production and assembly, to meet the prerequisites of the “Swiss made” label.
RAYMOND WEIL, an independent fami ly-owned company
The history of RAYMOND WEIL is f i rst and foremost one of a family: that of i ts founder of the same name who, at the t ime of the creation of the brand in 1976, dared to assert his independence and realize his own vision of Swiss watchmaking: high quality, innovative, elegant and accessible. Later on, in 1982, his son-in-law Olivier Bernheim joined the Company, of which he was named President and CEO in 1996. His visionary, entrepreneurial spir it enabled the watchmaking company to develop internationally in just a few decades.
Although RAYMOND WEIL exper ienced rapid expansion international ly, i t st i l l managed to preserve i ts human perspective, independence and family spir i t . This was consol idated in 2006, when the two grandsons of the founder, El ie and Pier re Bernheim, were appointed to head up the Company, bringing to the Brand a new approach to luxury and an interest in new technologies.
Thus the 3 generations pooled their talents and their experience – amounting to 100 years – continuing an exceptional heritage, ensuring the family succession and guaranteeing stability and continuity. The watchmaker continues to maintain relations of confidence and profound respect with its longstanding partners. I t remains equal ly close to i ts cl ients, a lways paying at tention to their expectations. In order to match these, RAYMOND WEIL has, in recent years, re inforced i ts opening pr ice point col lections and also developed new, more sophisticated, mechanical models, which appeal to an ever-growing public of watch lovers.
While the know-how and the passion for watchmaking have been handed down from generation to generation within the RAYMOND WEIL family, so has the love of music! It is in this artistic universe composed of passionate stor ies and exceptional melodies that each member of the c lan l ikes to plumb the depths of their inspiration with the creation of watch products. This is borne out by the names of the Brand’s collections taken from famous operas such as nabucco and parsifal, or with musical connotations, such as maestro or jasmine.
Emotions, precision, performance: these are the values common to music and watchmaking that RAYMOND WEIL wishes to share with its worldwide clientele.

Inspired by the mythical lyrical momentum
of Giuseppe Verdi, nabucco emanates power
and nobility of rare intensity. Dedicated to gentlemen
with a strong personality, this prestigious collection,
launched in 2007, exalts a very masculine
and charismatic architecture, combining strength
and audacity.
Titanium, carbon, steel, rose gold… Precious
materials and the precision mechanics of
the mechanical chronograph self-winding
movement, housed in a 43 or 46mm case, make
nabucco a true representation of sophistication,
reserved for a circle of connoisseurs enamored
by handsome design and watchmaking precision.

As a tribute to the Richard Wagner opera, the parsifal
collection celebrates the values of the hero, Perceval,
and his long quest for the Holy Grail.
Launched over 20 years ago, this historic collection
remains faithful to the aesthetic contours of the first
models, with a gadrooned bezel, a finely worked
bracelet, and the use of noble materials all in perfect
harmony with today’s trends. Available in 28, 39
or 41mm and entirely automatic, the parsifal
collection offers ladies and gents exceptional
contemporary timepieces.

freelancer’s name recalls that the Swiss Brand is one
of the last independent watchmaking companies.
This name also evokes the freedom of the artist,
in front of an empty musical score.
Like the composer, it is with just as much passion,
creativity and precision that the Swiss watchmaker
has assembled the components of the collection.
Free of all constraints, freelancer has never
stopped evolving since its creation in 2007,
but always keeping its true character: having
an urbane personality, with an elegant yet casual
appearance, with beveled horns and emblematic
screws. The freelancer timepieces all feature
a mechanical self-winding movement housed
in a 29, 38 or 42mm case, either for ladies
or for gents.

“Maestro” means “master”, a person who excels
in the practice of one’s art. In music, this word refers
to the esteem commanded by a grand personality,
composer or conductor. By giving this name to this
collection – which comprises virtuosity, classicism,
creativity, elegance and technical complications
– RAYMOND WEIL is paying homage to those
artists, who know how to synchronize the rhythms
of tradition and innovation.
Entirely mechanical and available in different
sizes, from 30 to 41.5mm, the maestro collection
features some complications in the great Swiss
watchmaking tradition. RAYMOND WEIL is offering
to men and women a true symphony of watches.

In 2011, RAYMOND WEIL celebrated 35 years of history with the maestro
35th Anniversary Edition. This model, equipped with the moon phase
function and two counters indicating the day and month, has a full-skin
all igator strap and an 18ct yellow gold 39mm diameter case.
True to the chic and classic spirit of the collection, the maestro
35th Anniversary Edition displays a timeless elegance and an uncompromising
love for watchmaking tradition.

Moon Phase Compl icat ion
Moon phase watches show the various phases of the moon, which have
always provided time with an orientation. The average period between
two full moons is 29 days, 12 hours, 44 minutes and 2.9 seconds or about
29.53 days.
Moon phase displays were very much in fashion during the Renaissance
on large astronomical clocks and then on pocket watches.
Although much less in use nowadays, this complication still fascinates,
demonstrating the watchmaker’s technical mastery and know-how.

Full-bodied, voluptuous and yet delicate, jasmine,
the exclusively feminine collection of the Swiss
watchmaking Brand, adorns itself in all its finery,
blossoming like the most beautiful of flowers
on ladies’ wrists. Its name comes from Puccini’s
opera, Turandot, where the princess’ splendor
is associated with the jasmine flower.
Inspired by this oriental beauty, all in roundness
and delicacy, the jasmine collection embodies
delicate femininity and beauty. In the Brand’s
purest tradition, it combines all the elements
of RAYMOND WEIL’s feminine watches.
Whether in 29 or 35mm, the jasmine timepieces
house an automatic or a quartz movement. In honor
of this subtle beauty, the design of the flower is traced
at the heart of the dial in guilloche.

The noemia collection pays tribute to the Brand’s
family dimension: it is a subtle reference to the first
name of Mr. Raymond Weil’s granddaughter, Noémi.
Like her brothers, Elie and Pierre, she has inherited
his love of music. Etymologically, this name means
“charm” or “grace”, which describes this feminine
collection perfectly.
With the delicate curves of its polished steel case
and the flawless elegance of its refined dial, noemia
radiates a dazzling charm and class. In perfect
keeping with a lady’s multifaceted personality,
noemia shines in a thousand ways. With or without
diamonds, the timepieces of the collection come
in two different sizes, 27 or 32mm in diameter,
all equipped with a quartz movement.

With its refined lines, tango masters the art
of movement with precision. Appealing to both
men and women, this collection offers harmony
as perfect as that of a pair of Argentinean dancer.
The models in this line combine vigor and sensuality,
exuding distinction through their well-balanced
proportions and signature bezel.
The tango timepieces all feature a quartz movement
and come in different sizes: 28, 33, 39 or 40mm
in diameter. Esthetic purity goes hand-in-hand with
a clear requirement for functionality, particularly
with respect to optimal readability. A tribute
to the watchmaking expertise of RAYMOND WEIL
and accessible Swiss made quality.

Tradition, this is what is handed down from century
to century: a practice, a body of information,
a way of thinking, doing or reacting, inherited
from the past. According to its variations,
whether feminine or masculine, the tradition
collection remains faithful to a classic and timeless
spirit. It is a reference to the Swiss horological
know-how handed down from generation
to generation in the RAYMOND WEIL family.
The timepieces of this collection come in different
shapes and sizes and feature a quartz movement.
The quality of execution, accessible luxury,
durable style, tradition invites you to share another
vision of refinement.
