I ordered it based on renders in mid 2023.
So well before it became hot. I saw the render, reached out to Sylvain, we talked on the phone for an hour, and I was utterly convinced by him and the product. If you did not get a response I would urge you to reach back out. Sylvain is one of the most responsive and kind proprietors I have ever met in any industry.
Berneron Mirage 38/34
Yesterday, following what felt like an eternity, I took delivery of the Berneron Mirage 38/34. It is nothing like any watch I have ever owned. The fit and finish far exceed any other watch that I have handled. And it is abundantly clear that every last de...
The independents, including Berneron, are the last bastion of innovation.
It is sad looking at the watch industry writ large.
Thank you so much! It may slip behind the cuff…
But there is no doubt that it makes a statement!
Excellent pickup!
Congratulations on adding a real special watch to your collection. Sylvain has taken fine watchmaking in an interesting new direction. Given the popularity and accolades that the Mirage has received, I know Sylvain is going to inspire watchmakers and bran...
I agree with your point, 100%
It would be great to see more watchmakers exercise the passion and conviction of Sylvain. However, we humans are risk averse and often lack confidence - this is one of those situations where someone caught lightning in a bottle.
Hopefully they can sort it out and get everything back in alignment when you send it in for its first service. LOL
It's definitely an eye stopper like the Crash.
Yes… but no?
Interestingly, and you probably know this, but Sylvain let the mechanics “break free,” ie, let the mechanics be shaped by the attributes that he was looking for in a watch (72 hour power reserve, large balance, etc.), then designed the case around the mis...
Congrats Josh.
I would be lying if I’d didn’t say I find these attractive and interesting. And yes, the thinness is an also a big advantage. These are 7mm or so, that’s not something many others are doing. I see this watch in the same way as I saw my Urwerk or Chaykin. ...
Thanks, Jay!
I need to allow some of my thoughts to become concrete before putting pen to paper because today I have a different impression than yesterday. I will certainly supplement my thoughts! I am hoping this will become a key part of my rotation.
Truly a special watch.
Congratulations. Well done! You must have ordered it before this brand became so hot. I reached out to them about 6 months ago and didn’t even hear back.

This is such a nice story.
It makes the watch even so much more special. Congratulations again. Wear it in the best of health.
Wow!
stupendously gorgeous! I cannot think of anything so fascinating to look at, fun, and beautiful all in one package (not including that amazing movement!)!
That’s a superb special very classy watch !
Daring design and classic at the same time, I like the feeling to have something different, clearly not mainstream. It flies under the radar and you can enjoy an amazing piece… in peace 😉. I smiled when you mentioned the pebble from LF (I have a soft spot...
I consider Berneron as one of the best watches in 2024
I breaks the monotony on watch design and goes one level up building the consistency on the movement side too ! Could you kindly add the pic of movement please ? thank you. Best, mahesh.,
Wow
