Heritage Chronograph Atelier 'Coquille d'oeuf' Watch 324.551

The Watch

Lebois & Co. makes a bold statement with this Heritage Chronograph Atelier 'Coquille d'oeuf' Watch. Rooted in the finest tradition of Swiss watchmaking, this classic timepiece features a round case of 39 mm in 316L stainless steel. The case is defined by a dual finish - an artful blend of matte and polished surfaces - that catches the light and enhances the timepiece's understated elegance. Completed by a transparent screwed case back, it invites the discerning enthusiast to admire the intricate mechanical beauty within.

The Dial

The centerpiece of this timepiece, the dial, is a genuine tribute to the art of watchmaking. Crafted entirely by hand in grand feu enamel - an exacting technique requiring firing at over 800 °C - it offers a beige finish with uniquely organic nuances. The black Arabic numerals contrast beautifully against the soft background color, while a meticulously drawn minute track frames the minutes display. Two subtle sub-dials are recessed for the 30-minute counter and the small seconds. Beyond classic timekeeping, it incorporates a pulsation scale - an unusual yet functional nod to its historical use in medical chronographs. This dial, signed by Donzé Cadrans in Le Locle, the cradle of watchmaking, guarantees unmatched quality and aesthetics.

The Movement

Powered by the La Joux Perret LC-450 caliber, this hand-wound mechanical watch unites precision and tradition. Running at a frequency of 28,800 A/h (4 Hz), it delivers accurate timekeeping. The movement offers a power reserve of 60 hours, providing generous autonomy for daily wear. The transparent case back lets you admire this mechanical masterpiece in action - a true pleasure for any watchmaking connoisseur.

The Strap

The strap in brown bovine leather is the perfect complement to this exceptional watch. Fitted with a classic pin buckle, it offers easy adjustment and a secure hold on the wrist. Effortlessly versatile, it pairs just as well with formal attire as it does with casual outfits.

Water Resistance

With water resistance rated at 5 ATM, this watch handles daily splashes and rain with ease. It holds up to incidental water contact - think showers or surface swimming - but is not designed for deep-water diving. That makes it the ideal choice for those who want an elegant, durable watch without sacrificing everyday functionality.
