Quick TakeForget your typical time-teller; the Strike Two Terra is like strapping a slice of raw earth, refined by Swiss precision, directly to your wrist. Chronoswiss went off-piste with this one, ditching the usual regulator look for this cool horizontal setup powered by their own C.6000 engine. That brown PVD dial isn't just colored; it's lasered, giving it this touchable texture that genuinely feels like a miniature landscape. Peeking through the hour display at 3 o'clock, you see the gears working – a nice mechanical wink. Then there’s the big central minute hand sweeping over it all, and the seconds ticking away independently over at 9. It’s functional art, really. Limited to just 100 pieces, rocking this 40mm steel piece feels exclusive, like you're in on a secret shared only with fellow enthusiasts who appreciate mechanics served with a serious dose of personality. It’s ruggedly handsome without being brutish, sophisticated without being stuffy – a perfect companion for navigating the urban jungle or dreaming of actual terrains.

DescriptionThe Chronoswiss Strike Two Terra, reference CH-5023-BRSI, is presented as a limited edition model, restricted to 100 units. Its architecture is based on a solid 17-part stainless steel case that undergoes both grinding and polishing processes for a refined finish. The case measures 40mm in diameter and 12.7mm in height, featuring a lug width of 20mm. A defining characteristic is the polished bezel, enhanced with a fluted decorative ring applied to its side profile. Protecting the dial is a domed sapphire crystal treated with double anti-reflective coating to ensure optimal legibility under various lighting conditions. The case back is meticulously screwed down and exhibits a satin finish, incorporating a sapphire crystal insert for viewing the movement. Water resistance is rated at 3 bar, equivalent to 30 meters, suitable for incidental contact with water. Structural integrity is further emphasized by the use of screwed strap links, securing the chosen strap to the case. An onion-shaped crown facilitates time-setting and winding functions.

Internally, the timepiece is driven by the Chronoswiss manufacture caliber C. 6000, an automatic movement with a diameter of 33mm. This intricate mechanism operates at a frequency of 4 Hz, corresponding to 28,800 semi-oscillations per hour (A/h). It incorporates 25 jewels to minimize friction at critical points. The balance wheel is constructed from Glucydur, featuring a triangular shape, and is paired with a Nivarox 1 balance spring for consistent timekeeping performance. Fine regulation of the rate is achieved via an excenter mechanism. Shock protection is provided by the Incabloc system. The movement boasts a power reserve of approximately 55 hours when fully wound. Notable finishing includes a skeletonized rotor crafted from tungsten, operating on a ball bearing system for winding efficiency. The armature, escape wheel, and screws are polished. Furthermore, the bridges are adorned with a Geneva cut pattern and are ruthenium plated, adding aesthetic refinement and corrosion resistance to the movement's visible components through the exhibition case back.

The dial configuration is a distinct horizontal regulator layout. Time indication is distributed across the dial: a decentralized hour display is positioned at 3 o'clock, featuring an open gear mechanism visible through two vertical bridges. The minutes are indicated centrally via a larger hand, while the running seconds are displayed on a subdial at 9 o'clock. The Terra variant features a unique dial base that is laser-etched and brown PVD-coated, providing a textured, earth-toned appearance. Hand-guilloché work adds further intricacy. Visibility in low light is enhanced by Super-LumiNova applied to the indexes. The hands are executed in the "Feuille" shape, contributing to the watch's overall aesthetic. The standard strap provided is calfskin with an alligator embossing, although a rubber strap is offered as an optional alternative.
