Bausele

Christophe Hoppe established the avant-garde Australian watch company Bausele in 2011 with the goal of producing unique, fine timepieces that encapsulate the country's rugged beauty and spirit of adventure. The term "Bausele" signifies "Beyond Australian Elements," underscoring the brand's commitment to bringing distinctive Australian elements and inspirations to its timepieces.

By fusing elements of Australia's varied landscape with state-of-the-art technology, Bausele distinguishes itself in the watchmaking industry. Every Bausele watch is made of materials from historical landmarks, Outback soil, or sand from Australia's famous beaches. With this creative approach, each watch becomes a unique narrative and connects the wearer to the vast and varied Australian environment. The core of Bausele's ethos is the creation of timepieces that embody Australian innovation and identity in addition to serving as instruments for telling time. The company uses Swiss movements and premium materials to ensure accuracy and longevity as part of its commitment to sustainability.

Collections such as Terra Australis showcases the collection's flagship item, cases made from Bauselite (a special ceramic and steel composite created in association with Flinders University) displays Bausele's inventiveness. The Australian opal in the crown of each watch symbolises the variety of the nation's geology. Even the OceanMoon IV, this robust dive watch is inspired by Australia’s coastline. It features a bold design with a crown containing sand from Australian beaches, symbolising the country's maritime heritage. It’s built for adventure, capable of withstanding the harsh conditions of the ocean.
