You’ve exactly mirrored my thoughts…
I’ve not jumped in early and still I’m unsure of such timepieces.
What I’ve realized, one is the novelty factor and another is my personality or my own ability to carry it on wrist with my personal comfort.
While I love seeing this timepiece separate or on someone’s wrist, I doubt I’ll be able to pull it off.
Berneron Mirage...a timepiece with a twist - literally ;-)
not a new launch but I happened to see it... this model did blow my mind....few reasons for it I could think of, aesthetic sense - something very classy. horological sense - not just adding a movement to a shaped timepiece, but redesigning movement consis...
Simply, yes.
I’m not an early adopter; be it tech or watches. Therefore this was not something I could be convinced of when first launched. But I like it now. And with time it also allows one to determine if the novelty factor is weighing on one’s thoughts. For me, at...

Thank you for posting. This look fantastic on you!
I really like the design and thought that went into it. I like this versus a Cartier Crash. One of the first “different” designs that is actually different. Not to mention the movement that is not just a regular movement squished into a different case sha...
Oh dear no, it isn’t my timepiece
I should have mentioned it clearly in the article, my apologies. This is timepiece of Berneron that I was able to see during W&W
No worries - but I am glad you got
to try it on in person and shared with us. Are orders still years out?
Did you get this one?
It's one of the best ideas from the last few years; different but not crazy different. Quite beautiful. If this is yours big congratulations.
Indeed a very nice watch dear Mahesh
The first shot was taken with Alex Ghotbi at IAMWATCH last year. Best Gatsby ...
wow...you've got one of the powerful photographers ;-)
thanks also for posting the WG version....I didn't take pic of it.
Thanks for these great shots, Mahesh!
Although I really love the originality of this design as well as this strap combo, I’m not so sure I could pull it off!🤔 I would love to see one in the metal! Thanks again!🥂
I think you've the same trouble as me...I do believe, for such a timepiece you need a personality that goes with it
the white metal Mirage is a bit subtle though. sure, worth seeing in metal, both are in deed a beauty to admire.
Never been trapped by the hype of Berneron, so many points didn't work for me : 1st the 'jam jar' logo
The Cartier Crash 'hommage', the dial : numbers, the 'Swiss' applied on the dial etc. The caliber ? A Bulgari Altiplano is 2.23mm thick in a 6.4 mm case. Ok, if you're a gold fan you might fall in love but never forget that it is not the first brand to pu...
I think there are elements which are appealing with Berneron and there are elements that might not be interesting...
It would be not comparing similar elements if we compare crash but not its tiny movement. nothing in watchmaking is new...most complications and mechanisms have been done decades ago, so I wouldn't ignore Berneron per say. personally I would wait to see w...
