A Regulator is not a watch like any other. This form of displaying the time has a tradition going back more than two centuries. It stands for what is special, unique and does not become immediately apparent to everyone. And this is more fundamental than ever: reading the dials with off-centre hour and seconds hands takes a moment of focusing.
As a new addition to the Regulator family in 2016, the Regulator Classic stands out by its classic and timeless appearance in combination with fresh and sporty emphases. Distinguished details such as the guilloched interior of the display for hours and seconds, the precisely aligned length of the hands and the contrast between matt-finished and polished surfaces create a harmonious appearance.
With its carefully selected combinations of colours and materials Chronoswiss has created an unconventional automatic watch that masters the balancing act between watchmaker tradition and timeless design. The model with the 40 mm case made from stainless steel is available in three variants: in an entirely purist form with a dial in galvanic silver and thermally blued hands or, less conventional, in deep midnight blue, while the blue is echoed in both models by the interior of the calfskin strap. The third variant is all classic and sporty: on the dial in galvanic black, signal red tones add that little dynamic extra that is emphasised by the casual rally design of the strap.
The automatic movement Chronoswiss caliber C.291 beats at 28,800 A/h and ensures a 38-hour autonomy. The rhodium-plated rotor is engraved with Geneva Stripes and ball bearing mounted; the plate and bridges are circular-grained; the lever, the escape wheel and the screws are polished.
