Bucherer presents the Harley-Davidson Blue Edition , the latest and most unusual member of the Bucherer Blue Editions watch collection . The custom made motorcycle is courtesy of Bündnerbike , the boutique Harley-Davidson workshop . Every metal element found on this one-of-a-kind motorcycle has been produced , welded , beaten , ground and polished by hand . This unique piece is perfected by the incorporation of the arts of watchmaking and jewellery making . This is also a world first : never before have a watch and jewels been integrated in a motorcycle . With a value of CHF 1.888 million it is the most expensive motorcycle in the world
There are a few key elements that give the bike its high value ; this includes the six layers of iridescent blue paint , gold-plated screws and 360 diamonds applied to the silver-plated body . Handmade detailing covers the bike , which includes hand grips draped in Bucherer jewellery , and a 5.40-carat diamond tucked inside an armoured glass dome .
With all of these elements , the Harley-Davidson Blue Edition is testimony to the passionate spirit , the comprehensive design understanding and the openness to new ideas from Bucherer . It is the perfect addition to the Bucherer Blue Editions watch collection , created in cooperation between Bucherer and the most renowned brands in the watchmaking industry .
