Pequignet recently presented its first chronograph from the “Elegance” collection, comprising men’s auto-wind models in a characteristic style of streamlined, elegant and now sporty watches.

Resolutely masculine, the watch combines a very classic design with infallible functionality. Governed by an automatic mechanism involving a column-wheel module and vertical coupling, it provides precision mechanics and unrivalled comfort.

The simplicity of its sunray dial catches the eye. The Arabic indices provide maximum readability next to a collar with the Maison’s logo and markings. The Fleur-de-Lys at 12 o’clock evokes the French manufacture of this model. The chronograph’s 12-hour and 30-minute counters respectively at 6 and 9 o’clock and the small second counter at 3 o’clock balance the dial wonderfully.

This new chronograph is available with different dials (rhodium-plated, black or blue) and straps (steel bracelet or calfskin leather) offering several combinations for elegant and sporty men.

“Chronographe Elégance”: 316L stainless steel polished/satin-finish Ø 42mm case, anti-glare sapphire crystal, crown with Fleur-de-Lys logo - Blue dial with sunray decoration, rhodium-plated Arabic numbers and logo at 12 o’clock, faceted hands with Luminova, dial second, minute and hour counters, calendar at 3 o’clock, crown at 3 o’clock: hour/date correction - 316L steel bracelet, 316L steel butterfly buckle with Fleur-de-Lys logo - Mechanical movement with auto-wind – Water-resistant to 10 bar (100 metres).
