PERRELET – Plumbing the depths …
Evolving in a new universe, Perrelet is now accompanying enthusiasts in search of discovery and emotions in the dark depths of the oceans. In a field so far not explored, Perrelet is plunging into this aquatic world with three instruments of measurement; its new collection comprises the 3 hands-date, the GMT and the Chronograph. All three are proposed in a robust stainless steel case with elegant contrasting polished and brushed surfaces. A 4mm thick sapphire crystal with anti-glare treatment on both sides, and a stamped, screw-down case back, guaranteeing water-resistance to 777 metres, complete the case features.
The main model featured here, the Chronograph, has a screw-down crown and two push-pieces encircled with aluminium rings, which contribute to the smooth functioning of the mechanical movement. An automatic helium valve, a vital element when the watch is being used in a diving chamber, is located at 9 o’clock. The fluting, which is the Brand’s aesthetic, is clearly recognizable on the one-way, notched, rotating bezel, showing a 60-minute scale and featuring a luminescent marker at 12 o’clock.
The extreme demands imposed by this sometimes very dark environment necessitate a clear legibility of its displays. The symmetric indication of its counters on the white, black or blue dials, the applied indexes and the hands containing luminescent material produce wonderful contrasts.
This collection is very well-balanced and sits perfectly on the wrist, whether with its elegant alligator leather or with its comfortable brushed stainless steel bracelet. A high-tech nylon strap is offered in the special watch box that comes with the three models of this collection.
Immersion in a world of silence, a world of mystery sometimes feared but always admired, in which you will be able to let yourself go with your new adventure companion.
