Aikon Quartz Chronograph 42mm Watch AI1118-SS002-330-1

The Watch

Swiss watchmaker Maurice Lacroix brings genuine expertise to every timepiece - crafting watches that add a spark of joy to the everyday lives of men and women alike. Elegance and refinement meet in a range of high-quality models suited to every occasion and dress code. Discover this Aikon Quartz Chronograph Watch AI1118-SS002-330-1 - made specifically for men. It features a round case crafted from brushed and polished stainless steel, measuring 42 mm in diameter and 11 mm in thickness. A domed sapphire crystal with a double anti-reflective coating sits on top, shielding the dial from everyday scratches. The case is encircled by a bezel secured by notches, lending the watch a glamorous, sophisticated edge. To set the hands, date window, and sub-dials, a screwed and notched crown is positioned at 3 o'clock, flanked by two pushers at 2 and 4 o'clock. Finally, the screw-down caseback delivers a water resistance of 10 ATM, or 100 meters.

The Dial

The stunning black dial is crafted with care to display the time with exceptional clarity. Featuring sunray and brushed finishes, it is guaranteed to turn heads the moment it hits your wrist. The bezel showcases a minute railway track made up of lines and Arabic numerals. The hours are marked by rhodium-plated baton indexes enhanced with white SuperLuminova rectangles for optimal legibility in any light. Two grey hands - coated with white SuperLuminova - sweep across the markers to display hours and minutes, even in complete darkness. They are joined by a slender seconds hand for the chronograph. A white-background date window sits at 6 o'clock, displaying the date in black Arabic numerals. At 6, 9, and 12 o'clock, three black sub-dials with grey borders handle the small seconds, 30-minute, and 1/10th-second functions respectively. The brand's M logo and name serve as a signature at 3 o'clock.

The Movement

At the heart of this timepiece beats a Swiss-made quartz movement. Celebrated for its durability and prized for its outstanding performance, it delivers precise readings of the time, date, and chronograph. Battery-powered, this mechanism ensures the reliable operation of the hands, sub-dials, and date window at all times.

The Strap

This watch comes fitted with a grey stainless steel bracelet that makes a statement every time you wear it. Composed of 5 rows of links combining a polished finish and a brushed finish for a sleek, refined look on any occasion. Secured by a folding clasp for a safe fit, it also features an easychange system that lets you swap it with any of your other straps for a versatile look. The lug width is 25 mm.

Water Resistance

With water resistance of 100 meters - or 10 ATM in the proud language of watchmaking - this boldly styled timepiece is equally at home at a gala or in the water. Feel free to wear your wrist companion in the shower, the bath, or the pool (even during an energetic swim!). That said, our team of watchmaking experts wants to be clear: this model is not designed for scuba diving - whether freediving or with tanks - or for use with high-pressure water jets. Remember: shower, bath, and swimming only, and never operate the pushers or crown underwater!
