Newport Heritage Chrono 35664AP24BR wall clock

The Watch

Herbelin inspires watch enthusiasts with its classically modern designs. Through relentless innovation, the brand continues to set new quality benchmarks and maintain its global presence. Its Newport Heritage collection introduces the new Chrono 35664AP24BR, housed in a cushion case crafted from 316L stainless steel. Refined and polished, it features a beautiful silver tone, measuring 42 mm long by 42 mm wide with a 12.50 mm thickness - a perfect fit for a man's wrist. The case is complemented by a bezel in the same finish, engraved with the collection name "Newport" on the lower portion. A sapphire crystal covers the dial for outstanding resistance to shocks and everyday wear. The central indicators are adjusted via the crown at 3 o'clock, flanked by two pushers. The case back ensures a water resistance of 10 ATM.

The Dial

The brand has equipped this watch with a black dial that stands out for its understated sophistication. With a double-circle layout, it showcases two large baton hands for hours and minutes, plus a slim seconds hand. Finished in silver tone, they point to baton indexes of the same shade alongside a black minute track running along the dial's outer edge. All time markers are luminescent, ensuring easy readability even in low light. As a chronograph, three sub-dials are positioned at 6, 9, and 12 o'clock. Uniquely, the one at 6 o'clock includes a date window alongside its 60-second function. The remaining sub-dials indicate 30-minute and 10-hour tracking respectively. Finally, Herbelin places its name at 3 o'clock, followed by the inscription "Chronographe".

The Movement

The case of this elegant timepiece houses a Swiss-made quartz movement - specifically the Ronda 3540 D caliber, which drives the hours, minutes, seconds, date window, and three chronograph counters with precision and reliability.

The Strap

The strap on this Newport Heritage is crafted from brown leather with white stitching around the edges for an ultra-vintage look that pairs effortlessly with any outfit. It sits comfortably on the wrist and fastens with a deployant buckle.

Water Resistance

This model offers a water resistance of 10 ATM, or 100 meters - a genuinely water-resistant watch. It's built to keep up with you in any aquatic setting, from puddles to the pool. Showers, baths, and lap swimming are no problem. That said, Ocarat's watch experts note that while this model handles water with ease, it is not suited for diving (recreational or professional) and should be kept away from high-pressure cleaning equipment. We also recommend avoiding use of the crown or pushers while submerged.
