Description
The Retrograph Chronograph seamlessly marries utilitarian functionality with a distinct retro aesthetic, embodying a design mission centered around precision timekeeping for specific intervals. Crafted as a purposeful timing device, it caters specifically to measuring the crucial moments of an espresso shot, falling within the precise range of 25 to 35 seconds. This homage to the past draws inspiration from the 1930s "telephone timers," introducing specialized markings on the subdial register that signaled intervals every 3 minutes, reminiscent of inserting coins for continued calls. The Retrograph continues this tradition by featuring markers indicating the optimal extraction time for espresso shots. Housed within a compact 1970s-style 38mm case, the watch exudes industrial charm with its blended steel and contrasting brushed components. Its clarity and functionality extend to a 60-minute timer for versatile use. Refined details, including meticulous high-polishing and hand-brushed finishes, adorn each facet of the case and dial, culminating in a carefully designed utilitarian dress watch suitable for any occasion. The Retrograph Chronograph is not just a timepiece; it's a stylish companion that captures the essence of a bygone era while seamlessly adapting to contemporary demands.
