It's particularly interesting for connoisseurs and car enthusiasts when a watch is designed by a house which normally specialises in fast cars. The new Chronograph 2 by AC Schnitzer with quartz movement continues the tradition of high quality watches which have been offered for years by the sports car manufacturer from Aachen. Subtly elegant, the timepiece is the supreme accessory for every occasion.

The wearer's wrist is adorned by a strap of ultrasoft black leather. The body of the watch is made of brushed stainless steel and in its finish reflects the company's love of detail and dedication. The base is screwed, making the man's watch water-resistant up to 10 bar pressure, as found at a depth of 100 metres. In addition, the black outer ring contains a tacheometer. For all other layers of life which call for precise time measurement, there are three" extra instruments" for counting seconds, minutes and hours. This stopwatch function is controlled by two knobs above and below the winder.

One unique feature of the timepiece which appeals as much to the sense of aesthetics as practicality, only emerges in the dark. The face, made completely from Luminova, shines as a whole and can be read easily at any time. This is enhanced by the high contrast between the black Arabic numerals and the pale background. Resting on a velvet cushion in a sophisticated box, the Chronograph 2 is ideal as an exclusive gift. The AC Schnitzer range also comprises a whole series of other watches with quartz movement or as exclusive automatic models in limited edition.
