Master Compressor Diver Chronograph Titanium / Rubber

In Context

At 44 mm it is a large watch — well above this catalogue’s 40 mm median, and enough to dominate a narrow wrist. The case back is closed, so the movement stays out of sight, and the sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse. 1000 m is a professional diving rating, far past any demand a wrist is likely to make of it.

The movement winds itself from the motion of your wrist. 65 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.

186T670 stands on its own in this catalogue — no other reference here shares its base number. It pairs a black sunburst dial with a titanium case. It was a limited edition. Introduced in 2007. Beyond the time it carries a chronograph.

Mechanical automatic winding movement, 280 parts, 28,800 vibrations per hour, 65-hour power-reserve. Functions: hour, minute, small seconds, date. Chronograph: hour, minute and 'operating indicator'.
