MOVEMENT
The case back, made of scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, reveals the decorated automatic movement with a rotor featuring the micro-engraved facade of Belvedere Palace. The watch runs on the CSS201 caliber, which is built upon a Dubois Dépraz and delivers 42 hours of power reserve.
CASE
A first glance reveals a timepiece that is sleek and logical on the outside. The black stainless-steel case of the Belvedere Midnight is also subtly animated by the interplay of polished and satin-finished surfaces and a striking fluted bezel. The screw-down crown allows water resistance up to one hundred meters.
DIAL
A unique date display window changes position each day, transforming the look of the watch every twenty-four hours. The skeletonized hands and indexes light up brightly on the asymmetrical guilloché dial thanks to a generous application of SuperLumiNova, ensuring high legibility even in difficult lighting conditions.
STRAP
The integrated high-quality rubber strap has an elegantly textured inner surface for maximum wearing comfort even while the wearer is engaged in sports.
EFFORTLESS ELEGANCE IN TITAN & MIDNIGHT BLACK
With the Belvedere Midnight & Titan, we expand our Belvedere collection with two additional variants.
The sportiness of the Belvedere Titan and the Belvedere Midnight is subtly and understatedly underscored through the deliberate emphasis on color and material. Elegance takes on a new presence, with the golden second hand shining brilliantly in both detail and functionality.
Perfect for any occasion – be it formal or casual – the Belvedere Titan and Midnight bestow upon your appearance a timeless sophistication.
Casual elegance with an imperial twist

Belvedere means “Beautiful view” and refers to a building that was designed to provide a beautiful, tranquil, and expansive view of its surroundings. The Belvedere communicates Vienna’s relaxed attitude towards life, to enjoy every moment with a “beautiful view”.

About Carl Suchy & Söhne
VIENNESE ELEGANCE SINCE 1822
2017 the Viennese legacy watch brand returned with the „Waltz N°1“
IMPERIAL
Founded in 1822 by Austrian watch-maker Carl Suchy, the renowned watch brand counted the likes of Emperor Franz Joseph, Empress Sisi and Sig- mund Freud amongst his distinguished customers. After one century as the sole watchmaker for the Habsburg roy- alty, Carl Suchy & Söhne disappeared with the demise of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. In 2017, the brand has revived.
VIENNESE MINIMALISM AND SWISS MANUFACTURE
The Viennese legacy brand returned in 2017 with an iconic model: The Waltz N°1, a watch that is inspired by Viennese Modernism and the works of architect Adolf Loos, who marked the golden age of Austrian art. The automatic timepiece features a caliber by Vaucher Manu- facture Fleurier, which is reworked by Swiss watchmaker Marc Jenni, a former member of the Académie Horlogère des Créateurs Indépendants (AHCI). In 2018, the watch brand presented a skeleton version of its best-seller.
VIENNESE ART OF LIVING
Renowned worldwide, the pompous Austrian capital’s coffeehouse culture and the illustrious balls held at the imperial courts have been the basis of the Viennese art of living since the beginning of the 20iest century. With its rotating “Waltzing Disk” in place of the second hand at 6 o’clock, the Waltz N° 1 and its declinations honor an époque of artistic and intellectual effervescence, in which time counted little: once a minute, its guilloche-pattern on the disc aligns with that of the dial.
CARL SUCHY & SÖHNE – THE LEGACY
1796 Carl Suchy was born in Prague, the «royal metropolis» and second cap- ital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
1812-1819 Apprentice years with famous German watchmaker Franz Lehner. Wandering years in German and Switzerland, the cradles of Euro- pean watchmaking.
1822 26 -year old Suchy opens his shop in Prague. His technically advanced pendulum and wall clocks match the market-leading English and Swiss models and win countless prizes. Official sup- plier to the Imperial Court since 1835, Suchy has 35 employees and gains a good reputation well beyond the Empire.
1844 Thanks to his watches, which „exceed the highest expectations in regard to elegance and technical per- fection”, Carl Suchy is appointed the first and for many years only “Watch Purveyor to the Royal and Imperial Court”.
1849 As Suchy’s sons join the paren- tal business, „Carl Suchy & Söhne” is founded. The watches are produced in the Austrian manufactory as well as in the Swiss branch and are regularly displayed at world fairs in Paris, London and Vienna.
1863 Carl Suchy & Söhne opens a shop in the center of Vienna and holds the title of Purveyor to the Royal Courts for three generations – until the decay of the Habsburg Empire in 1918.
2017 Revived by Robert Punken- hofer, an internationally renowned art and design expert, the Viennese legacy watch brands returns in 2017 to Basel with the Waltz N° 1, whose skeleton version is presented in Basel in 2018.
