Concord introduced a new C1 Chronograph with a special blue treatment last month at the Baselworld show.
Like the original C1 Chronograph, it comes in a large, but wearable 44 mm size. It has the same signature vulcanized rubber around the bezel, and on the crown and pushers, that is seen on all C1 timepieces.
Inside is a nicely decorated automatic chronograph movement (an ETA Valgranges A07.211) with blued screws and a blackened oscillating weight.
The dial is carbon fiber and blue, with an exposed date indicator and three subdials at 6, 9, and 12 o’clock. The coolest feature, and what sets this apart from all other C1 chronographs, is the blue PVD case. It has basically been run through a washing machine, giving it a faded blue “destructed look”.
Retail is estimated to be $10,000.
