Watch 1975 Quartz Chronograph Date 40mm 751038-SS001-130-2

The Watch

The Maurice Lacroix 1975 Quartz Chronograph Date watch delivers a refined design featuring a round stainless steel case with a skillful blend of matte and polished finishes. With a diameter of 40 mm and a thickness of 10 mm, it hits an ideal size that suits the majority of men's wrists. The sapphire crystal, known for its outstanding scratch resistance, features double anti-reflective coating, keeping the dial crystal clear in any lighting condition.

The Dial

The gray dial of this Maurice Lacroix watch is a genuine work of art, with its sunray finish catching the light beautifully and delivering a dynamic display with every movement of the wrist. The hands indicating hours, minutes, and seconds are sharp and highly legible thanks to their contrast against the dial. The indexes are complemented by a minute track for effortless timekeeping. An elegant aperture at 3 o'clock reveals the date window, adding to the functionality of this piece. The integrated sub-dials, dedicated to the chronograph functions, are thoughtfully arranged to track the half-minute, 60 seconds, and 1/10th of a second, ensuring uninterrupted and precise time measurement.

The Movement

At the heart of this timepiece beats a high-precision Swiss quartz movement, the Ronda 5040.D caliber, renowned for its speed and minimal upkeep. This movement handles not only the standard display of hours, minutes, and seconds, but also chronograph timing to the 1/10th of a second - making it the ideal choice for those who demand extreme precision in their daily activities. The reputation of the Ronda movement further underscores Maurice Lacroix's commitment to mechanical excellence.

The Bracelet

The strap on this watch is crafted from black grained cowhide leather, adding a distinguished visual and tactile texture. Contrast stitching lends an extra layer of refinement, reinforcing the classic, masculine character of this model. At 20 mm wide, this strap ensures a comfortable and secure fit thanks to its easy-to-use deployant clasp. Its construction balances style and durability, making this watch equally at home for daily wear or special occasions.

Water Resistance

The Maurice Lacroix watch is water resistant to 10 ATM, providing adequate protection for light swimming and everyday splashes - though it is not intended for deep-water diving. This level of water resistance adds versatility, allowing the watch to transition seamlessly from the office to aquatic environments while safeguarding its internal mechanism for the long term.
