Like the instruments of a symphony following the metronomic tempo of the conductor's baton, the hands of Raymond Weil's new maestro march past at full speed, with allegro vivo. Second after second, minute after minute and hour after hour, the maestro Chrono strikes its pose and plays its part in today's passage of time.
In Greek mythology, Chronos, one of the primal gods, personifies time and destiny. Legend has it that this ethereal being propelling the celestial world in its eternal rotation. With its fine hands at the centre and on the three counters at 6, 9 and 12 o'clock, the maestro Chrono has now taken its place in the present and future. It will keep heads turning in a perpetual captivation.
In contemporary culture, the god, Chronos, represents wisdom and the ideals of human life. The maestro Chrono, with its delicate forms and chic aesthetics, projects itself to its demanding owners as an ideal timepiece, appealing not only to the elite, but to every connoisseur, who recognizes the value of work well done, by the Master Watchmaker.
Equipped with a 41.5mm case, the color of rose gold like the sun setting on the infinite line of the horizon, recalling eternity, the maestro Chrono appears timeless. With its silver dial and ‘clou de Paris' embellishment, its seconds, minutes and hours displays, with their rose gold tinted hands, a reminder of the case, the newest arrival at Raymond Weil is surprisingly natural in both its simplicity and complexity.
Just one year after its launch, the maestro “del tempo” is still continuing to astonish!
