Aquanaut Luce Rainbow Chronograph Rose Gold / MOP

In Context

At 39.9 mm it sits just under the modern norm — the band that suits the widest spread of wrists. At 10.37 mm thick it is about average for a modern wristwatch. The case back is open, so the movement is visible without taking the watch apart, and the sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse. Rated to 30 m, it is protected against rain and splashes and nothing beyond that.

The movement winds itself from the motion of your wrist. 55 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.

7968/300R-001 stands on its own in this catalogue — no other reference here shares its base number. It pairs a white gradient dial with a white gold case. Introduced in 2022. Beyond the time it carries a chronograph.
