Chronograph
A chronograph must have a stop function
Chronographs are among the most popular watch complications in the valuable watch class. Customers who buy a chronograph as a luxury watch receive a stop function as a very special addition. With this function, the time on the watch can be set to zero with a simple press and thus measured reliably. Only when the valuable wristwatch has this additional stop function can it be called a chronograph.
Valuable watches from the master class
Chronograph watches have a long and interesting history. The first watch that had one of the stop functions that is still so popular today was manufactured in 1776. This watch complication was registered for a patent in 1844. The Rolex Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona remains a classic among chronographs to this day. It was launched in 1963 and still enjoys unbroken popularity among many watch lovers.
The Omega Speedmaster is also one of the most famous and sought-after chronographs in the world. The Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch has a special history. It was part of the legendary moon landing by American astronauts and is still valued and used by the US space agency NASA. With the Breitling Navitimer, customers can buy a chronograph that is one of the most sought-after watches among pilots and sports aviators. The TAG Heuer Carrera, on the other hand, has proven its perfection and reliability for several decades in many motor races, including in the highest class, Formula 1.
The IWC Portuguese Chronograph Classic is a special kind of chronograph. Like many chronographs, it has an automatic caliber. This means that these watches are primarily comfortable to use in everyday life. The A. Lange and Söhne Datograph offers maximum exclusivity. This masterpiece of mechanical watches is one of the icons among luxury watches.
