The black zirconium oxide ceramic dial, complemented by a matching ceramic 44.25 mm case with a brushed and polished ceramic casebody, features  striking 18K white gold applied indexes as well as two blackened sub-dials that distinguish the timepiece from its legendary predecessor, OMEGA’s “Moonwatch”.

These two sub-dials are made possible by the innovative placement of the 12-hour and 60-minute counters on the same sub-dial at the 3 o’clock position, allowing a comfortable and intuitive chronograph reading.

There is a small seconds sub-dial located at 9 o’clock and a date window at 6 o’clock. The hour and minute Moonwatch-style hands are fashioned from 18K white gold, as are the hands found on both sub-dials; the central chronograph hand is rhodium plated and features a red tip for increased visibility of recorded seconds.

Super-LumiNova coats the two dots at 12 and the hour, minute and chronograph hands ensuring that the wearing can read the time in a variety of lighting conditions.

Protecting this prominent dial is a box-form scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment on both sides.

 The matt chromium nitride tachymeter scale – among the most identifiable design features of the Speedmaster – stands out on the polished ceramic bezel. The two polished ceramic chronograph control pushers on the case function totally independently – accordingly, there is no risk to the chronograph mechanism as a result of inadvertent manipulation.

This unique timepiece is presented on a highly durable black coated nylon fabric strap complete with a black ceramic buckle. The timepiece is water resistant to 5 bar (50 metres / 167 feet).

The dark side of the moon
Engraved on the polished ceramic caseback in matt chromium nitride, above the bevelled scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, are the words “DARK SIDE OF THE MOON” – an appropriate tribute to this Speedmaster’s heritage and its bold black design.

It is sure to find a strong following among Speedmaster fans and watch enthusiasts who want to combine the impressive legacy of a remarkable chronograph with the best series-produced mechanical watch movement in the world.

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.
