Elegance, class and timelessness were Martin Braun’s ultimate goal when designing the Classic. The simplicity of the timepiece demands the highest amount of design work. The Classic’s secret lies in its proportions, shape, and colors. The latest addition to the Classic Collection is the Classic Chronograph, a column wheel chronograph with flyback function, powered by Martin Braun’s own in-house MAB 98 movement.

It is extremely difficult to find exactly the classic elements and put them together, guaranteeing a timepiece that is not too modern, but not too old-fashioned either. “Must every ‘classic’ watch be a compromise?” Martin Braun asked himself. “We don’t think so, which is why we searched out just the right hands, the correct proportions of the dial, the perfect, round case lugs, and made the case back just so.” The fine stripes of the subdials and the dial’s applied markers reflect modernity, in classic form.

Housed in a 40 millimeter case, the Classic Chronograph is water resistant to 50 meters. Its anti-reflective sapphire crystal also proves its modernity, though this timepiece is nothing more and nothing less than classic in style.
