Master Compressor Dualmatic Stainless Steel

In Context

At 41.5 mm it is sized to the current mainstream: 40 mm is the median across every watch measured in this catalogue. At 11 mm thick it is about average for a modern wristwatch. The case back is closed, so the movement stays out of sight, and the sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse. 100 m is genuine swimming resistance — more than the shape of this watch suggests it would need.

The movement winds itself from the motion of your wrist. 48 hours of reserve is enough to set it down on Friday evening and find it still running on Monday. At 28,800 vph the seconds hand advances 8 times a second.

1738470 stands on its own in this catalogue — no other reference here shares its base number. It pairs a black sunburst dial with a stainless steel case. Introduced in 2002.

Self-winding movement with second time zone (12h) and 24-hour indicator paired to the second time zone.
