An independent watch brand has just unveiled a titanium chronograph that redefines industry standards. Combining exceptional technical performance with refined design, this watch could well become the new benchmark for fine watchmaking enthusiasts looking for exclusivity.
A titanium chronograph that defies convention
The new Pandial Marina Bicompax Titanium Chronometer immediately stands out with its 43 mm case in grade 5 titanium. This high-tech material offers an unbeatable strength-to-weight ratio, allowing the watch to weigh just 72 grams despite its generous dimensions.
With a thickness of 15.9 mm and a lug-to-lug distance of 51.5 mm, this watch is clearly aimed at robust wrists. It nevertheless retains exceptional comfort thanks to the lightness of titanium.
