introduction
Every gathering in Geneva is a promise of encounters, discoveries, and meaningful exchanges. But the 2025 edition of Geneva Watch Days held a particularly special resonance for LEDERER.
It marked the occasion to unveil, for the very first time, our latest creation: the CIC 39 mm Longitude. A direct heir to the CIC 44 Triple Certified Observatory, which was awarded the Chronometry Prize at the GPHG 2024, the Longitude draws its DNA from the world of marine chronometry, where the quest for absolute timekeeping once guided the great explorers of the seas.
Compact and refined, yet remaining true to the distinctive architecture of our movement featuring a double detent escapement and twin remontoirs d’égalité. This new creation embodies the natural evolution of our vision: a horology of perfection, balance, and depth.
CIC 39 Longitude
More than a new timepiece, the CIC 39 Longitude is a milestone in our journey. It inherits the spirit and architecture of the CIC 44 Triple Certified Observatory, a watch that was not only triple-certified for chronometry in Geneva, Besançon, and Glashütte, but also received the Chronometry Prize at the GPHG 2024.
But where the Observatory sought academic perfection, the Longitude brings that same horological purity into a more intimate, wearable, and poetic format.
Its very name pays tribute to the great age of maritime exploration, when watchmakers and explorers worked hand in hand to tame longitude and conquer the seas through the power of precise timekeeping. In that spirit, the CIC 39 mm Longitude embraces the codes of marine chronometry, from its technical roots to its symbolic essence.
A Shared Emotion
Throughout the week, our salon became more than a showroom, it became a space for dialogue, wonder, and shared fascination.
Collectors who have followed our journey for years returned to see what would come next. Retail partners from around the world stopped by to feel the watches on their wrist, not just with their eyes. Journalists and photographers paused between appointments to dive into the story behind each movement. And then, there were those who discovered LEDERER for the very first time, often through a friend’s recommendation, a whisper in the halls, or a curious glance caught from afar.
Each visit reminded us why we create. Every question asked with sincerity, every gaze that lingered in silence, every moment of discovery, these were the true highlights of Geneva Watch Days.
Human Endeavor
Behind every LEDERER watch lies more than technical achievement. It is a story of people. Of men and women who dedicate their minds, hands, and hearts to an idea of horology that values meaning over marketing, longevity over trends, and emotion over spectacle.
At Geneva Watch Days, this human dimension was palpable. We welcomed visitors not just as guests, but as fellow travelers on a shared path.
Our manufacture, our team, our vision. All came together in one room, united by the same conviction: that independent watchmaking still has so much to say, so much to give, and so much to dream.
