BAUSELE - TERRA AUSTRALIS Red black Automatic Watch

Never before has there been a premium watch featuring Australian-made parts.

Until now, ‘Australian’ watches have been made from Chinese materials. And rarely could they be considered ‘premium’. All that has been changed by Bausele. Terra Australis is the first world-class timepiece made in Switzerland from parts designed and crafted right here in Australia.

The first thing that grabs your attention about this elegantly masculine watch is the signature five-pronged diamond clasp holding the face securely in place. Then the distinctive black crown, which is made of Bauselite, a material specially created and manufactured for Bausele by their partners at the Flinders University Centre for NanoScale Science & Technology. The partnership is indicative of the support and passion for Australian industry which is at the heart of the Bausele philosophy.

Bauselite is the result of three years of intensive research and development between Bausele and Flinders University’s Centre for NanoScale Science & Technology, resulting in the creation of a jointly-owned company to produce the material for commercial use. It is the first time that world-class watch components have been manufactured in Australia. Bauselite is a lightweight material that is similar to ceramic, but it enables more accurate modelling and suffers less shrinkage than common ceramics used in watch manufacture. The manufacturing process is also more environmentally friendly because it yields less wastage.
