DESCRIPTION
- Les Classiques Collection
Mechanical watches, in all simplicity
In its latest timepieces, the Maurice Lacroix Les Classiques collection concentrates all the elegance of traditional watchmaking and uses contemporary design to emphasize its refinement. As a tribute to the interpretative talent of its designers and to the know-how of the brand, the 2010 vintage takes another look at aesthetics and technology in a timeless, and quite simply watchmaking, spirit.
Five new creations now enrich the series of Les Classiques. They bear the distinguishing marks of a brand that has breathed fresh life into its products over the last few years. Fitted with self-winding mechanical calibers, they testify to the capacity of Maurice Lacroix to evolve without any loss of identity.
The new timepieces endow their mechanical hearts with a face that is formally conventional, yet seems ageless. Their mellow finishes disclose an intense, profound sobriety; their presentation, reduced to its clearest expression, stresses functionalism and legibility and avoids aesthetic overstatement. The hours and minutes succeed each other peacefully, with no extraneous influence to disturb the view of their passage. Only the bezel is permitted a more conspicuous, dynamic profile, showing that these watches reconcile temperament and evident simplicity.
This aesthetic moderation is equalled only by the complexity of their mechanisms. These watchmaking complications have constituted the spearhead of the brand since the 1980s. Apart from function, it is the undisputed mastery and authenticity of Maurice Lacroix that distill their authority into the machinery of these timepieces.
In a 21st century with leanings towards the chaotic, the ephemeral and the effervescent, self-discipline is the exception rather than the rule. The self-discipline taught by Les Classiques 2010 is a philosophy and a determination to get to essentials, to show even better the splendour of time. Designed for people who prefer classicism to lavishness, they are the faithful reflection of the refinement and authenticity of the brand.
Les Classiques Jours Rétrogrades Automatique
Retrograde heritage
The week extends along an arc of a circle, regular and changeless. All of a sudden, when it reaches the end of its travel on Sunday, the hand springs back to resume its docile cycle. This is retrograde indication. As complications go, it is a must; a great Maurice Lacroix tradition that has been followed for nearly 30 years.
The Les Classiques Jours Rétrogrades Automatique watch houses the caliber ML 102, with its unique large date indication and retrograde days that rank it among the great. The former is located in a double window at 12 o'clock, while the seconds tick away rhythmically at 6 o'clock, endowing the dial, black or silvered, with a beautiful visual balance. Sobriety is the order of the day. The design of the watch sets off the values of the time data in classical and contemporary spirit. To make legibility perfect, the hours and minutes hands and the appliques markers are highlighted with Superluminova.
The smallest element of decoration or the least indication has its raison d'être in this stainless steel case, 40 mm in diameter. Sobriety of appearance is a self-evident essential feature of this timepiece, water-resistant to a depth of 30 meters.
