This modern masterpiece revives one of the first steel watches to house the groundbreaking El Primero automatic chronograph calibre. The 37mm tonneau-shaped steel case pays homage to the original model's iconic design, while the gradient brown dial with a pronounced vignette effect, darkening towards the edges, adds a captivating and unique touch. It's a visual symphony that harks back to the pioneering days of watchmaking.

Underneath the stunning exterior beats the legendary El Primero 400 movement, originally unveiled in 1969 as the world's first automatic chronograph calibre. This movement remains a symbol of precision and innovation, boasting a high-frequency 5Hz escapement, automatic winding, and a column-wheel clutching system that continues to set industry standards.
