New Carl F. Bucherer Ambassador
January 19, 2010
Footwear by Stallion is always special because it maximally reflects the spirit and character of its creator Pedro Mundoz. The same idea can be applied to the wristwatches by Carl F. Bucherer. And all this makes a good reason for two famous and passionate creators to sign a partnership contract according to which Pedro Mundoz is becoming an official ambassador of the watchmaking brand.

Mutually beneficial partnership will serve the reputation of the both brands. The very personality of Mundoz and the products by Stallion Boot & Belt become a flawless crystal which refracts glamour and magnificence of Carl F. Bucherer.
The history of the Stallion Boot begins with the history of its creator. Mundoz has been fascinated by parts, sewing and texture of footwear since his early childhood. And this is quite understandable: the first pair of shoes the boy acquired from his father who was a shoemaker.
Becoming a college student Pedro Mundoz makes his first pair of shoes that serves a means of expression of his own ideas. Innovative design, decoration and bright imagination make a basis for Mundoz’s collection of footwear that is notable for extreme comfort and durability.
Today Stallion Boot & Belt is famous the world over. This is probably the last manufactory that makes exclusive footwear by hand. The company produces only 70 pair of shoes every month. The Stallion products are especially notable for high quality materials: genuine leather of python, elephant, hippopotamus, lizard and ostrich.
Pedro Mundoz commented: “I see the same originality in Carl F. Bucherer tiepieces that is typical for my own products”.

January 15, 2010
Recently the viewers of the world had the opportunity to see the new Oscar-candidate movie “Up in the Air”. The film is starring George Clooney whose character - Ryan Bingham - spends most of his time in the air. This is a man who is hired to oversee the downsizing of businesses. Ryan Bingham’s role is to deliver the bad news to employees who are about to lose their job - although clearly times are not as tough for him, bearing in mind the top-of-the range timepiece on his arm.

Attentive viewers can notice that the main character played by George Clooney is wearing Omega DeVille Hour Vision watch housed by a case and featuring a steel dial and black leather strap. The choice of the timepiece is rather understandable – for a long time George Clooney has been one of Omega’s most well-known and active ambassadors.

“Up in the Air is a timely release – its theme of corporate downsizing resonates powerfully with recession-era movie audiences”, Omega states.
