Launched in 2004, the Chronopro was the premiere mechanical chronograph. This year’s redesign sports the same 42mm Victorinox Swiss Army solid-steel case with a crown protector but adds new functionality and optimizes legibility. Among the most striking upgrades are a dual finish bezel displaying the tachymeter scale, larger numerals and luminescent hands, counters with applied rings and a minute scale on the flange. A bright red 60-second counter hand dominates the enhanced dial, for instant at-a-glance reading.

Turn it over — the powerful, Swiss-crafted Valjoux 7750 movement is visible through an exhibition caseback uses a mineral crystal. Available on a genuine black leather strap with a brushed matte finish, cream-colored contrast stitching, and an integrated pushbutton folding clasp.

The case is 316L stainless steel and is 42 mm in diameter. Powering the timepiece is the reliable Valjoux 7750, which is a Swiss-made self-winding mechanical chronograph movement. The power reserve is 42 hours. The bezel features both polished and satin finishes, with a tachymeter scale for speed measurement. The crown and pushers are screw-down and help maintain a water-resistance rating of 100 meters (330 ft, 10 ATM).

The dial is protected by a triple-coated anti-reflective sapphire crystal.
The caseback is screw-in, with a shock-resistant crystal. Hands and hour markers have a luminescent paint for nighttime visibility.
