maurice lacroix 257

Watch fans that are looking for a product which is unique in its design may want to check out a new, "truly fascinating spectacle" of a timepiece from Maurice Lacroix.Entitled the Masterpiece Roue Carree Seconde, the model stands out for the fact that its main feature on its dial is the seconds display, instead of the hour and minute hands that are the usual common element of wristwatches.Watch Luxus reported that this is achieved through a square wheel mechanism, which "comes to life before your very eyes, thanks to the steadfast, rhythmic movement" of it.This feature is activated via a clover-leaf-shaped wheel at the top left corner of the square seconds display, which turns it in a continuous motion.Maurice Lacroix, which has been making appealing watches since 1961, allows this feature to stand out by opting to display the hour and minute hands with a simple design, with each finished with a coat of superluminova.

Maurice Lacroix Classique ChronographThis year Maurice Lacroix will add yet another model to its Les Classiques collection of watches. Sporting the same recognizable design (that somehow draws associations with much more expensive F.P. Journe Chronometre Bleu timepiece,) the new watch is trendy, dressy and up to the point.If you find the Classique Chronograph’s dial layout very familiar, do not be afraid: you are not suffering a severe case of deja vu. Like a great deal of other timekeepers in this segment, the watch is powered by the ETA Valjoux 7750 natural-born chronograph movement. Slightly modified by Maurice Lacroix, it has received the “ML caliber 112″ designation.There is still no info about the recommended price, but it is known that the watch comes packed in a mid-size 41 mm round case, has a pair of sapphire crystals on its front and back and has a water resistance rating of only 30 meters.Although the watch will also be available with silver and black dials, I guess that it is the blue one that will be the bestseller.
