In this Gentleman, gold is concentrated on the bezel and the blue dial has a fine crosshair. Beneath the classic look is Powermatic 80 Silicium with a silicon hairspring and up to 80 hours of power reserve.

Why it is interesting

The gold bezel gives Gentleman a warm accent while keeping a familiar steel case. It makes a restrained choice for business clothes that can be taken off for several days thanks to 80 hours of running.

Things to consider

Protect the polished gold bezel from knocks and scratches, and leather from water. For regular swimming, look for a model with a more suitable strap and water resistance.

The model in detail

Version T927.407.46.041.00 pairs a blue dial, gold-coloured hands and markers with a blue leather strap. The date sits at 3 o'clock, and a fine crosshair emphasises the dial's symmetry.

The Powermatic 80 Silicium movement has a silicon balance hairspring. Automatic winding stores energy from wrist movement; power reserve reaches 80 hours, more than three days at full wind. The movement and rotor engraved “Waves of time” are visible through the display back.

Case diameter is 40 mm and thickness 10.64 mm. Sapphire protects the dial, and the hands carry Super-LumiNova. Strap lug width is 20 mm; the standard butterfly clasp opens with push buttons. Water resistance is 5 bar / 50 m. Classic form and moderate thickness suit everyday and business clothing.
