Buci teams up with seconde/seconde/ for a limited edition

Born from the intersection of poetry and watchmaking, the Parisian brand seeks to poeticise time. This collaboration with artist seconde/seconde/ perfectly aligns with that vision with a numbered, limited edition model.

T

o celebrate the International Day of Poetry, Buci partnered with the artist Romaric, known as seconde/ seconde/, to present a numbered, limited edition model.

"Poetry - a bloodsport where a daring soul fiercely fights a blank paper.”

Buci’s vision is to poeticise time, and this collaboration with seconde/seconde/ perfectly aligns with that vision.

By exploring the question ’What is poetry?’, which has always been at the center of Buci’s universe, the brand found in Romaric an ideal partner to bring this vision to life.

Romaric then proposes to explore the dark and ruthless facets of poetry, resulting in two unique creations: a pad-print on the sapphire background, illustrating the definition of poetry according to seconde/seconde/, and a unique signature on the textured dial that evokes paper.

This piece embodies the very essence of poetry: a supreme form of art where paper and the poet bleed simultaneously.

These forty automatic watches mark the conclusion of the first chapter of Buci, thus closing its first limited and numbered edition, ranging from numbers 261/300 to 300/300.
