Royale Paris Chrono Watch - 39,5 mm

Initially launched in two versions featuring blue and red counters, it is now unveiled in a new interpretation with black counters, exuding a distinctly elegant and contemporary character. The Royale Paris Chrono is the first chronograph from Pequignet Manufacture. This contemporary sports model embodies a French watchmaking tradition: it was in France, at the beginning of the 19th century, that the chronograph — a timepiece designed to measure short intervals of time — was invented. The Royale Paris Chrono retains the aesthetic attributes that define the collection’s signature: the case with attached lugs and the concave “gouge”-shaped indentation that runs around the entire dial. Its perfectly aligned pushers activate a smooth and controlled time measurement. The Royale Paris Chrono displays the small seconds at 3 o’clock and the 30-minute chronograph counter at 9 o’clock. It is equipped with an offset stem system, allowing the crown and pushers to remain perfectly aligned. With this sporty model, Pequignet strengthens its position as a true Manufacture and fully asserts its status as a “watchmaking engineer.” Like the entire Royale Paris collection, this version features interchangeable straps. Calibre Initial® Chronograph: a new development To power this new chronograph, Pequignet has developed a movement based on the Calibre Initial®, enhanced with new finishing touches. This fifth movement has been designed to create a chronograph watch whose thickness remains well controlled. Like the Maison’s other four movements, all components are sourced within a radius of less than 80 km around the Manufacture.
