Welcome to my page covering the Buren Calibre 82, a historic 1970 movement cased in 1998 by Schweizer Uhren-Editionen. I have collected my documentation here as a reference to other owners, and watch enthusiasts interested in the brand.

I urge you to start by reading about my discovery of this unique wristwatch and calibre: The Last Buren: High-Beat Calibre 82 Revival

Buren Calibre 82

If you have a Buren Calibre 82, please contact me! I would love to set up an owners registry or correspond with you regarding this unusual watch. There are only 239 in existence, so it would be remarkable indeed if even two of them ever found each other!
