About Kerbedanz Watches
Kerbedanz represents more than just luxury. It's a brand dedicated to infusing personality into watchmaking style and engineering. The very first 50 watches were personalized for and sold to the Most Important Personalities (MIPs) around the globe. That's how big a splash the Swiss watchmaker made on their first entry into watchmaking.
Kerbedanz History
Kerbedanz was born in 2011 to Tigran Kerbedanz and Aram Petroyan in Neuchatel. This is an esteemed Swiss watchmaking city with neighbors like Bulgari, Panerai, and HYT. Surprisingly, Kerbedanz has the best view of the city, with a balcony overlooking Lake Neuchatel.
In typical Kerbedanz fashion, the brand mantra, location, and designers were carefully thought out. For one, the Neuchatel location, overlooking the watchmaking town, gives the Chief Designer a place to brainstorm poems and symbolic timepiece ideas.
Second, the abundance of expert watchmakers around means the brand can easily reach out for help since it's the cradle of watchmaking.
Moreover, Kerbedanz's origination theme was a tribute to Tigran Kerbedanz's ancestor. He was a respected Armenian blacksmith who was an excellent metal and also a famous clock repairer. So, they established the brand to pay homage to him.
Kerbedanz creates watches that craft your singularity, in other words, what makes you unique. In 2021, they introduced a new line of leather accessories like wallets and tote bags to ascend your style.
Through showcasing complexities like the world's largest tourbillon, they don't merely create watches; they craft statements of ambition and technical prowess. This audacious approach propels them into iconic status, making them resonate with both seasoned aficionados and the modern discerning consumer.
Kerbedanz Collections
Every Kerbedanz collection gives a sense of beauty through the use of poems and allegories expressed through their designs and decorations.
Now, Kerbedanz watches may be reserved for the MIPs, but they also offer seemingly everyday models like the Cadanz collection.
All these watches are crafted with expertise and a passion to help wearers reach self-fulfillment.
Kerbedanz Maximus Collection
Beyond its evident luxury, the Maximus Collection is real-life evidence of Kerbedanz's success and ambition. It's a line of overly-engineered mechanical watches that indicate the brand's level of expertise and intention to compete with only the best.
Showcasing the world's largest tourbillon, the Maximus model is more than just a watch; it is a declaration of the brand's horological mastery. Unsurprisingly, for its size, it features a 49mm case in either 18k rose gold, titanium, or diamond bedazzled.
Furthermore, in classic Kerbedanz fashion, the name Maximus is an allegory for the largest Roman monument and sports arena in the world-the Circus Maximus. To complete the premium luxury feel, they use polished alligator leather straps.
Cadanz by Kerbedanz Collection
This is Kerbedanz's idea of an everyday watch for those interested. The Cadanz collection features three different models - Signature, Cruise Date, and Anniversary. They all have a portable 41mm case, but they have different complications. More specifically, a date, roulette data, and calendar, respectively.

Best Selling Kerbedanz Watches
The brand's strategic showcase of its tourbillon expertise influences the popularity of its entire range. From their most intricate to their simplest designs, each watch benefits from the brand's reputation for technical excellence.
Cadanz by Kerbedanz Signature Date 41 (ref. CS41200D.RA)
This is one of the more sporty luxury watches you'll come across. It's created for active use but has the face of a classy dress watch.
The dial is the most alluring part of this watch, similar to most other Cadanz watches. It has a brushed black plate surrounding a mesmerizing hand-machined guilloche center. In addition, shiny, plain silver hour markers and a circular date window give it a classic look.
It has a sapphire glass front and case back, showcasing its 50-hour power reserve KRB-05 movement. Lastly, the strap is rubber with a hook and loop fastener for extra comfort.
Cadanz by Kerbedanz Cruise Date 41 (ref. CC41210D.RG)
The Cruise Date line is very similar to the Signature Date model, both of them having the same case, strap, and movement. However, slight but noticeable differences in the dial can affect your decision to buy one.
The first is the "roulette date" window of the Cruise Date that looks like it's cruising into the next day from the last day. Also, unlike the Signature Date with a half dial, it has a complete Arabic hour marker dial. There's just an allure to the way its large font runs along this dial that will leave you steering.
