Perpetual Calendar Split-Seconds Chronograph 5372 Platinum / Blue

In Context

At 38.3 mm it sits just under the modern norm — the band that suits the widest spread of wrists. 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 is hand-wound, so winding it becomes part of the day rather than something the watch does for you. 48 hours of reserve is enough to set it down on Friday evening and find it still running on Monday. At 21,600 vph the seconds hand advances 6 times a second, the slower and more audible rate of an older design.

5372P-001 is one of 2 executions of the 5372P base reference. Underneath they are the same watch; what separates this one is a blue dial and a platinum case. Introduced in 2017. Beyond the time it carries a chronograph and a perpetual calendar.
