Milady Mansart Continental Watch

The Watch

Founded in 2008 by two childhood friends, March Lab masterfully blends classic French aesthetics with modern, innovative touches. The brand creates distinctive, one-of-a-kind timepieces with a vintage look that bridges contemporary style and sophistication. Assembled in France, its models deliver technical precision, reliability, and accuracy - adding the perfect distinguished finishing touch to your look for any occasion. Designed for women's wrists, the Milady MANSART Continental - named after one of Biarritz's most iconic beaches - will exceed your expectations in terms of quality and design. It comes with an octagonal case crafted from 316L stainless steel for outstanding durability and robustness. It is beautifully enhanced with a gold PVD treatment and alternating polished and brushed finishes that give it an unmistakably chic look. Vintage in spirit, it measures 28 mm in width, 33 mm in height, and 6 mm in thickness, allowing it to sit gracefully on your wrist. Its surface is protected by a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal that preserves the dial's visual integrity, with an anti-reflective treatment for optimal readability. The most eye-catching detail of this case is its octagonal crown at 4 o'clock with a grooved finish, used to set the hour and minute hands for accurate timekeeping. All of these components are paired with a screw-down case back that ensures 5 ATM water resistance.

The Dial

Clean and minimalist, the dial delivers a modern take on vintage-classic style. It features a white base with a subtle radial brushed effect that adds a refined finishing touch. Understated yet striking, it is punctuated by golden yellow baton indices doubled at 6 and 12 o'clock. These markers are pointed to by two baton hands that precisely indicate the hours and minutes. As a signature, the dial is authenticated by the brand name at 12 o'clock alongside its distinctive logo. On the opposite side, just below 6 o'clock, reads the inscription "Made in France."

The Movement

Powered by a high-performing quartz movement, this model delivers highly precise and reliable analog timekeeping. More specifically, it runs on the Swiss-made Ronda 762 caliber, known for its outstanding accuracy. It is powered by a 364 battery with a 10-year lifespan and features a temperature regulation system that adjusts the movement's frequency to compensate for thermal fluctuations.

The Strap

This beautiful watch offers versatile styling thanks to the variety of straps included. With a 14 mm lug width, each strap pairs perfectly with the case and ensures all-day comfort throughout wear.

The first strap is crafted from kidskin leather and adds the perfect vintage finishing touch to the model. Its black color creates a beautiful contrast with the case for a classic look. Made in the Franche-Comté region, it is lined with green leather and equipped with a "presto" system for tool-free strap changes in seconds. Comfortable and secure, it features a pin buckle for a reliable fit.

The second strap is crafted from brown alligator leather. Charming and sophisticated, it adds an elegant note to the watch while ensuring comfortable wear. Timeless in style, it is fitted with a pin buckle that keeps it securely on the wrist without compromising its elegance.

The third strap brings a chic, timeless note that won't go unnoticed. Crafted from 316L stainless steel, it is enhanced with a gold PVD treatment and alternating brushed and polished finishes. It is composed of 9 rows of rice-grain links and closes with a reliable, sturdy snap clasp equipped with a "presto" system for easy swapping.

Water Resistance

With 50-meter water resistance - or 5 ATM in watchmaking terms - this is a timepiece that can handle a little water, but doesn't want to live in it. An occasional shower? Fine. But to preserve the quality and precision of the movement, our watch specialists strongly advise keeping it away from H2O in the bath, pool, or sea. In short: no swimming, no diving, no prolonged water contact or submersion.
