Press release


Excalibur Chronograph


The new subtly remodelled Excalibur collection has been modernised.
The bezel has become more pronounced thanks to more dynamic, deeper fluting. While preserving its strong personality, the crown-guard has become more streamlined and merges more closely with the case middle. And the ingenious effect of a double flange around the dial gives it new depth by highlighting each identifying feature of this collection.


Double-pusher column-wheel chronograph


One of the collection’s showpieces, the double-pusher column-wheel chronograph – naturally manufactured in-house and stamped with the Poinçon de Genève – has made a strong comeback with dials that underscore the timepiece’s strong character.

The silky black dial has large white Roman numerals, while the counters have Arabic numerals. The double flange cleverly adds depth to the dial with its touches of yellow.

Completed with a hand-stitched alligator strap with adjustable steel folding buckle, this model is limited to 280 pieces.
