Magnus, your report is superb ...
and therefore I can only add some pictures I took at Basel:
Paul is probably on of the most decent persons in the industry and it is always a great pleasure to talk with him.
Some of the new "details" are great and some are not to my (visual) taste.
One day I will have to customize a watch with him ...
Best,

Baselworld 2013: Paul Gerber
Famed independent watchmaker and AHCI member Paul Gerber invited me to his atelier a few weeks before the Basel watch fair to study his novelties in a more relaxed atmosphere... This year Paul's focus was entirely on his entry level collections simply cal...
My Turn to Say What a Great Guy Paul Is
What other watchmaker has his warmth, friendliness and easy, down-to-earth personality so unanimously lauded? My wife and I visited the Gerbers a couple of years ago, and had an experience so similar to the positive experiences recorded by all of their ot...

Paul is Another kind
Of a flavor to the independent watch making sector and so are his timepieces . Thanks for posting Faisal
Yes, the Ruth Gerber....
has piqued my interest. Please do tell. And thanks for a wonderful report. Paul's watches are fantastic. Darren
A very nice review!
For me all of Paul's watches are just that much off the beaten (or beating!!) path to make them not only interesting and desirable - but obtainable - without losing his or my own sense of direction. This is the sensible way to go. The escapement in the Ca...
Thanks Magnus
Always great to heard about Paul, and the new pieces are great. The winder is very Paul! Will look forward to hearing about Ruth's piece!

Maybe I'm a purist (small 'p')
But I like the PuristS (big 'P') in Paul Gerber watches. Their 'simplicity' belies the 'duality' in the complex micro-engineering conception and execution. He is a true and pure meister uhrenmacher but before that, a true PuristS. The simple solution of a...
Beautiful watches..
My favorite is the simple 42 pilot with just the date. The three micro rotars are stunning, but in the video it looks like they are not flowing freely. It looks like something is making them get stuck for a little while. Is that how it is in the metal? Th...
Three explanations...
1. Exhibition conditions I: I took the images at day three or four of the fair, so its highly likely that the main springs were already fully wound and thus offered significant resistance to the rotors. 2. Exhibition conditions II: Note that the movement ...
Not the ETA 2824-2?
FWIW it looks like the movement displayed is Mr. Gerber's manufactured calibre that he currently uses for the base movement of his Model 41 watches.
