Overview
Released in the summer of 2021, the Chronomaster Original is nearly identical to the vintage A386 El Primero it is inspired by, sharing the same case design, proportions, and dial layout. The primary differences are a series of modern upgrades including the use of a sapphire crystal, Super-LumiNova, an exhibition case back, a high-frequency movement that can measure up to 1/10th of a second, and for this particular reference a new vintage-inspired reverse panda dial with the perfect shade of faux-aged lume. Famed for being one of the first chronographs to use an automatic movement, the historic El Primero in its classic 38mm size is a worthy addition to any watch collection.
