Category Archives: Spero Lucem

The Spero Lucem is a new brand of watches, that was inspired by the city of Geneva. Its name was taken from the city’s motto “Post Tenebras Lux”, meaning “Light After Darkness” – the full version of which is “Post Tenebras Spero Lucem” (from the Old Testament Book of Job, in the Bible), meaning “After darkness, I hope for light” or “After calamity, I aspire to happiness”. This watch company strives to pay tribute Geneva and the fundamentals of the city. They believe that these fundamentals of tradition and a history that is still an integral part of the city’s daily life are those that Swiss watchmaking owes a large part of its identity.
