Chronoswiss is especially known for its exquisite collection of regulator timepieces. This collection of bold creations now takes a new turn as it shifts into higher gear with the Regulator Classic Carbon Racer. For this watch, Chronoswiss is getting its inspiration from the world of motorsports. It does so by taking a new approach to the signature regulator dial.

Can you make a design even more imposing when you take something away? At Chronoswiss, they prove that this can indeed be the case as with the Flying Grand Regulator Skeleton, they take one of their most iconic designs to the next level by taking away most of the dial and leave only the bare essentials of the movement. This results in a watch that has an incredible sense of depth when you look at it from the dial side. Originally the dial already had several levels, and Chronoswiss retained most of this structure, not only to add the extra sense of depth but also to ensure that this version of the Grand Regulator remains just as easy to read as the ones with a solid dial.

There is no denying, blue is currently one of the hottest colors in watchmaking. Not as a fleeting trend, but as one of the new standard colors, next to silver and black. But there are watches with blue and blue watches. Chronoswiss shows that it is genuinely committed to this color with the Flying Grand Regulator Open Gear ReSec, which takes being blue to a whole other level.

Chronoswiss has especially in recent years been a brand that unites the best of both worlds. On one side traditional craftsmanship is still a cornerstone of their DNA, but now they utilize this in a far more progressive way, cleverly playing into the trends of current times. The new Retrograde Fusion is a perfect example of this strategy.

As a brand, having an icon in your collection can be a blessing and a curse at the same time. While icons will generate interest and revenues, there will always be a point in which you need to move into the future, preferably with your icon, but changing it is still a very sensitive task. This was also a challenge that Chronoswiss faced with their Regulator.

When Chronoswiss launched their first regulator model, 30 years ago, they brought a dial configuration mainly known from clocks to the wrist and created an icon in the process. While during those years Chronoswiss created many other beautiful, and even more complicated, watches, the Regulator remained one of their signature models. And now, with the Flying Regulator Night and Day, Chronoswiss writes a new chapter in the history of the model.

It is for sure an overused word in the industry: icon. A lot of watches are identified as such, yet few fully deserve all the credits that come with it. One that most certainly does it the Regulator by Chronoswiss. Now celebrating its 30th anniversary, the regulator is a milestone in watchmaking, introducing a whole new way of checking the time on the wrist when it was introduced in 1988.

It may come as a surprise: a classic watch brand such as Chronoswiss to dedicate a limited edition to a cryptocurrency. This is however not as strange as it perhaps seems because when Chronoswiss was founded quartz was still the way of the future. History told us otherwise, and Chronoswiss was ahead of that curve.

Chronoswiss, based in Munich, has been bought by Swiss entrepreneur Oliver Ebstein and his wife Eva Maria. New to the watch industry, they have said that Chronoswiss will be owned by them privately, opposed to being ran through their investment company Meru AG. Wanting to continue in the tradition of using high-quality mechanical components, they […]
