Chronoswiss Digiteur

Digiteur is a line of mechanical watches without hands from the independent brand Chronoswiss, founded by Gerd-Rüdiger Lang. The time is shown in three windows with discs: hours, minutes and seconds. The hour numeral changes instantly — a jumping hour.

The line is recognisable by its rectangular case and large onion crown. The Neo Digiteur Granit has an anatomically curved caseback, and the case geometry refers to the Art Deco of the 1930s. Inside this model is the hand-wound calibre C.85757, based on a historical architecture and reworked for the jumping-hour discs.

The Neo Digiteur Granit has a steel case, a matt black dial and a black leather strap with a steel buckle; it was issued as a limited edition of 99 pieces.

Before choosing, it is worth trying the rectangular case on the wrist and checking that you find it comfortable to read the time from the windows.
