Master Compressor Chronograph Ceramic

In Context

At 46 mm it is a large watch — well above this catalogue’s 40 mm median, and enough to dominate a narrow wrist. At 14.3 mm it is a tall case, and it will catch on a cuff. 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. 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.

205C570 stands on its own in this catalogue — no other reference here shares its base number. It pairs a black sunburst dial with a titanium, ceramic case. It was a limited edition. Beyond the time it carries a chronograph.

Automatic movement with chronograph and second time zone.
