UNDIMINISHED SUCCESS
PORTUGUESE CHRONOGRAPH
In the anniversary year of 2015, the Portuguese Chronograph continues its success story as the most popular Portuguese watch. Thanks to a wide choice of different versions, there is a suitable model for every watch lover.
The term chronograph – “writer of time” – refers to an earlier version of this type of watch in which the dial would turn and a writing implement that rested on top of it recorded stopped time either as short or longer strokes, rather like the tachographs used in commercial vehicles today. The word has since come to refer mainly to time-pieces with an additional stopwatch function. But if the Portuguese Chronograph (Ref. 3714) writes anything, it is the story of its own success. After all, it has been the most sought-after model in the Portuguese family since 1998. Back then, it was the first Portuguese watch that not only allowed the wearer to read the time, but also to stop it. With a frequency of 28,800 beats per hour, the movement is extremely precise, and times can be recorded on the high-precision calibrated scale running round the dial to an accuracy of one-eighth of a second. As a timeless watch designed for everyday use, it has an understated, unmistakable design that makes it a genuine classic combining elegance with a distinctly sporty touch.
This timepiece owes its popularity to, among other things, its moderate 40.9-milimetre diameter, which makes it ideal for a more slender wrist. Thanks to its proportions and elegant design, it is equally popular with men and women. Everything is integrated harmoniously on the clearly organized dial: the recessed totalizers, the embossed Arabic numerals and the perfectly proportioned feuille hands for hours and minutes. The push-buttons for stop times and resetting provide the sporty highlights that are simply de rigueur in a chronograph.
