DESCRIPTION

A classic chronograph with an exposed movement

Altanus Genève is a Swiss brand founded in Geneva in 1914, Italian-owned since 1973, with its workshops still located in Geneva. The Elite collection represents its most classic side: understated and refined lines, fine materials, and a dial focused entirely on craftsmanship.

The blue dial features a two-zone guilloché design: a central disc with concentric circles surrounded by a more understated outer ring with the minute scale. The steel baton indices are applied, and the Altanus Genève logo is embossed. The two sub-dials at 9 and 3 o'clock have a sunray finish that makes them stand out from the background, and the date display is at 6 o'clock.

This piece is NOS — New Old Stock: it is not a used watch, but a piece that was never sold and remained in our remaining stock. This is confirmed by the original blue oval Altanus tag still attached to the strap with its cord and the complete set of the original box and warranty. The list price is €1,210.

The case
Round 42 mm stainless steel case, with a polished bezel and satin-finished sides. Knurled crown with the Altanus logo at 3 o'clock and two rectangular chronograph pushers at 2 and 4 o'clock. The crystal is anti-reflective sapphire. The exhibition case back, secured with screws, shows the movement and bears the engraved inscriptions "ALL STAINLESS STEEL - WATER RESISTANT 5 ATM - SWISS AUTOMATIC CHRONOGRAPH MOVEMENT - SAPPHIRE CRYSTAL", the Altanus logo, and the number 7875. Declared water resistance: 5 ATM (50 meters).

The dial

The dial features the "Altanus GENÈVE" logo, the word "Automatic", and "SWISS MADE". Silver-tone leaf-shaped hour and minute hands with luminescent inserts; central chronograph seconds hand.

The movement
Valjoux 7753 automatic mechanical movement, the two-sub-dial version of the renowned Swiss chronograph caliber, visible through the case back with a custom "Altanus GENÈVE" rotor. Functions: hours, minutes, small seconds, chronograph with 30-minute counter, and date display.

The strap
