In accordance with the stated theme of Chronoswiss leader [[Lang, Gerd-Rüdiger|Gerd-Rüdiger Lang]] //"All of my watches are 100 years slow"//, this high-quality timepiece, which is inspired by the classical watchmaking of the 19th century, uses all available means of a previously granted, but today extraordinary skill. And with its [[chronograph]] function combines it effortlessly with modern standards of functionality and prestige. Within the current product range this successful model impresses with Chronoswiss-typical fine [[guilloché]] pattern of the dial made of high quality silver as well as its costly crafted [[hand]]s in classical shape. The time display on the dial is installed out of center, so that neither the hours nor the minutes hand can affect the reading of stopped seconds, minutes or hours. The current time is displayed where the design feature of the [[watch movement]] leaves enough space at the "3". The case, assembled from 23 parts, satisfies highest aesthetic and functional standards. **Movement:** * Chronoswiss Calibre C.753, base calibre [[ETA 7750]] * [[Chronometer]] with [[COSC]] certificate * [[Self-winding]] movement, [[balance wheel]] [[Glucydur]], three-leg, [[flat hairspring]] [[Nivarox]] I * [[Precision regulation]], eccentric * Power reserve ca. 46 hours * [[Skeletonized]] and gilded [[rotor]] with [[Geneva stripes]], ball bearings * [[Lever]], [[escape wheel]] and screws polished, [[plate]]s [[perlaged]], [[bridge]]s with [[Geneva stripes]] * Individually numbered movement **Functions:** * Hours, minutes, seconds * Chrono central stopsecond, precision 1/8 sec., 30 minutes counter, 12 hours counter **Dial:** * Solid [[guilloché]] 925 [[sterling silver]] dial with printed Arabic numerals * Minute scale with 1/4 seconds graduation * Available with different dials **Hands:** * Depending on the model polished, [[blued]] or white painted steel hands in pear shape (Poire) **Case:** * Solid 23-part case grinded and polished * Diameter 38 mm * [[Cannellation|cannellated]] [[bezel]] with one-sided antireflective [[sapphire crystal]] * Screw-in caseback, [[sapphire crystal]] with single-sided [[anti-glare treatment]] * Onion crown and pushers ([[gold]] and gold/steel models covered with gold dome) * Lugs screwed with patented system Autobloc * [[Waterproof]] to 3 atm (30 m) **Bracelet:** * All models available with metal bracelet or leather strap with [[folding clasp]] ===== Literature ===== * [[Das ZEITGEFÜHL-Uhrenbuch]]; Author [[Gerd-Lothar Reschke]]; ISBN 3-938607-61-0 {{tag>Watch_models Chronographs Chronoswiss_models}}
