Following the success of the original Chronotimer models, we are proud to present a new design which has been two years in the making and introduces an entirely redesigned case. The Classic Mechanical Chronotimer is presented in a choice of four dial variations. By popular demand, these new Chronotimer models are equipped with a hand-wound mechanical chronograph movement.

At the heart of the new Chronotimer collection beats the remarkable 19-jewel TY2901 chronograph movement, a tribute to timeless watchmaking, delivering mechanical precision with every tick. Crafted at the Tianjin watch factory, this reliable hand-wound movement is based on the vintage Swiss Venus Calibre 175 design, featuring blued screws and polished, bevelled bridges with intricate patterns. It offers impressive accuracy, with a deviation of around 20 seconds per day, and is completed by a power reserve of approximately 42-hours. With 10ATM water resistance, this chronograph is both durable and refined, perfectly suited for everything from boardroom meetings to weekend getaways.
Protected by a flat sapphire crystal with a bevelled edge, the dial of the Classic Chronotimer is a true spectacle. The subtle, blue-tinted anti-reflective coating on the inside of the crystal ensures readability in any light, allowing the sunburst-finished dual-layer dial to shine with sophistication. The dial is adorned with polished indices, illuminated by BGW9 luminous material, providing legibility even in low light.
The polished hour and minute hands are also treated with BGW9 for nighttime visibility, while the painted chronograph seconds hand and sub-dial hands bring a pop of colour and contrast. Encased by a bevelled and polished fixed bezel, the Chronotimer exudes a refined balance of sportiness and elegance.
Completing the design is a custom-made, top-quality leather strap, offering both comfort and durability. The strap’s fine craftsmanship perfectly complements the watch, ensuring it looks as good on casual days as it does when dressed up for formal occasions.
