The New Maurice Lacroix Pontos S Diver Watches
Maurice Lacroix Pontos S Diver Bronze Limited Edition (42mm) Black Dial / Vintage Brown Leather Strap PT6248-BRZ01-330-3
Limited to 888 pieces, this model features a black lacquered dial with a minute ring and a date aperture at 6 o’clock. As well as this, the dial exhibits baton indices and hands executed in golden hues and lined with vintage beige Super-LumiNova. This luminous treatment emits a notable glow, so even in low-light conditions, the time is still visible. Warm yet eminently cool, a 42mm bronze case frames the dial. Due to the properties of bronze, the case may develop a natural patina over time. As the metal reacts with the skin, it forms a thin protective layer on the surface; ultimately giving the watch a completely unique look. Moreover, a second crown features at 2 o’clock. With a purpose of measuring elapsed time underwater, it operates the internal rotating bezel. A vintage brown leather strap secures the watch to the wrist. Its bronze pin buckle not only provides great security, but it also enhances the watch’s contemporary appeal.
Equipped with the automatic ML115 calibre, and with up to 300 metres of water resistance, this Pontos S Diver is ideal for daily wear; promising to look über-chic on both your wrist and the city streets this summer.
Maurice Lacroix Pontos S Diver Special Edition (42mm) Black Dial / Black Rubber Strap PT6248-DLB00-330-2
This special edition model has a hunger for nocturnal adventures. Playing with contrasts, its black lacquered dial encompasses both yellow and white hues on the hands and indices. Like the previous Pontos S Diver, this model also features a date aperture at 6 o’clock and the hands and indices feature a Super-LumiNova coating. A stealthy 42mm black DLC stainless steel case frames the dial, and due to the properties of DLC, is very resistant to abrasive and adhesive wear. Therefore, making the watch a great choice for daily use. Again, like the previous model, an additional crown features at 2 o’clock. While it can be used to measure elapsed time spent underwater, it can also be used as an aide memoire in the office. An automatic ML115 calibre also powers the watch; reliable and precise it ensures accurate timekeeping.
With a sandblasted black DLC pin buckle, that matches the case, a black rubber strap secures the wrist. However, if this isn’t to your taste, you can switch it for an alternative thanks to the Maurice Lacroix Easy Strap Exchange System.
Legible, robust, precise and stylish; whichever version of the Pontos S Diver 2024 you choose, rest assured it is the perfect accessory for city life.
