CONCORD - C1 Chronograph Goes “AU-NATURALE” In Chic Matte Grey And Titanium





CONCORD - C1 Chronograph Goes “AU-NATURALE” In Chic Matte Grey And Titanium NEW

Concord goes for an all-natural look as a subtle alternative in the latest chapter of the C1 Chronograph’s re-launch success story. This new C1 Chronograph offers an impossibly sleek undulating line of chic natural grey underscored by the elegant strength of pure titanium. This is the first in the iconic range to focus on an allover grey theme – from the stylish stamped silver dial to the smooth grey alligator strap.

This subtle mix of grey and titanium creates a béton brut or architectural concrete look – a form of structural expressionism with an austerity and uniformity strongly associated with contemporary design, and which is entirely in tune with the C1 spirit.
True to the sexier, sleeker interpretation of the C1 DNA, the new C1 Chronograph’s grey alligator-on-rubber strap merges seamlessly into the 47mm titanium case punctuated by its eight trademark blocks and pushers in black ceramic.
Extending this elegantly monochromatic symphony, rhodium-plated polished hour-markers detailed with Super-Luminova®, an open case-back engraved with Concord’s trademark "Audace – Savoir-Faire – Avant-Garde", and a titanium deployment buckle with embossed Concord cover provide the perfect finishing touches to this masterpiece of natural harmony.

Powered by a mechanical, self-winding movement and protected by a 2mm thick sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment, the new Concord C1 in titanium is water resistant to 200 meters. The stamped silver dial sports a 30-minute counter at 12 o’clock, 12-hour counter at 6 o’clock, small seconds at 9 o’clock, date window at 3 o’clock, hour and minute hands with Super-Luminova®, and a central chronograph sweep seconds hand.

This marvel of grey sophistication is complemented by the smaller, more discreet new C1 screw-down crown in grade 5 titanium, thus incorporating yet another element of the artfully altered DNA and avant-garde spirit of its larger-than-life older siblings.
Over half a decade after the fascination and emotion created by the birth of its unique predecessor, the new Concord C1 Chronograph’s high-tech materials once again demonstrate living, steadily beating proof that less is definitely more.

PANERAI - PAM00508 LUMINOR SUBMERSIBLE 1950 3 DAYS AUTOMATIC CERAMICA Special Edition























 OFFICINE PANERAI - PAM00508 LUMINOR SUBMERSIBLE 1950 3 DAYS AUTOMATIC CERAMICA - 47M 

Unique edition of 1000 units

THE ABSOLUTE DARKNESS WHICH RULES IN THE DEPTHS OF THE SEA IS REFLECTED IN THE APPEARANCE OF THE LUMINOR SUBMERSIBLE 1950 3 DAYS  

Automatic Ceramica, the new Officine Panerai Special Edition which, with its matt ceramic case, its P.9000 manufacture movement and the details inspired by the historic heritage of the brand, represents a perfect synthesis of history, technology and watchmaking design.

The Luminor 1950 case with the bridge protecting the winding crown, a characteristic Panerai feature, is made of brushed black ceramic, a material synthesised from zirconium oxide powder which ensures lightness and toughness as well as resistance to scratches, corrosive agents and high temperatures.

The classic shape of the case 47 mm in diameter is created by a complex series of working and finishing operations which also give it a particularly uniform, smooth, matt appearance. The unidirectional rotating bezel enabling the length of the dive to be determined is made of the same matt ceramic as the case.

The only colour which contrasts with the profound black of the case and of the dial is the ecru Super-LumiNova® on the applied hour markers, the graduated scale and the partially skeletonised hands. The date window is at three o’clock while the classic Panerai small seconds dial is positioned at nine o’clock.
