1975 Master Grande Date Retrograde Watch 758008-SS001-090-2

The Watch

The 1975 Master Grande Date Retrograde Watch embodies the elegance and watchmaking performance of Maurice Lacroix. Designed for the modern man, it features a round case made of high-quality stainless steel. Known for its strength and durability, the steel is complemented by a mix of matte and polished finishes for a refined look. The generous 42 mm diameter and 13 mm thickness give the watch a notable wrist presence while maintaining comfort. Its transparent, screw-down caseback reveals the movement through scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating. Made in Switzerland, this timepiece combines tradition and innovation and comes with an international warranty.

The Dial

This watch's dial is a feat of design, with a skeletonized finish that highlights its watchmaking craftsmanship. Exposed movement components offer a view of the mechanism at work and give the dial fascinating visual depth. Its gray color creates an understated, elegant look, enhanced by the play of light across its surfaces. Hands treated with SuperLuminova remain easy to read even in the dark. A double window displays the big date, a useful complication integrated into the design. Carefully styled hour markers and hands complete this display of watchmaking detail.

The Movement

This watch is powered by the in-house ML302 caliber, a Swiss automatic movement that showcases precision engineering and reliability. Its oscillating weight, visible through the transparent caseback, helps provide a 38-hour power reserve when fully wound. Beating at 28 800 vibrations per hour, the movement delivers the precise timekeeping watch enthusiasts value. It displays the hours, minutes, seconds, and date with the attention to accuracy expected from the brand. A skeletonized opening reveals the delicate gears, offering a captivating view of watchmaking in motion.

The Strap

Carefully crafted, the black cowhide strap complements the case's metallic finishes and adds to the watch's refined look. Its 20 mm lug width creates a smooth transition from case to strap for a secure, comfortable fit. Delicate stitching shows attention to detail, while the soft leather feels pleasant against the skin. A butterfly deployant clasp makes the watch secure and easy to put on and take off. The strap's timeless black color makes the watch a versatile choice for formal and casual occasions, offering an understated wedding ring of style and comfort.

Water Resistance

With 5 ATM water resistance, this watch is designed to handle everyday moisture, from rain to accidental splashes, while maintaining the precision and refinement expected of a Swiss-made timepiece.
