This summer, the dial of the iconic square watch made by the Swiss watchmaker takes on a color that is quite remarkable.

The Monaco Purple Dial is a limited edition watch that has only been produced in 500 numbered copies and is only sold at the boutiques of the brand. This chronograph with a 39 mm square steel case was first introduced in 1969. It now features a purple face, which is a significant departure from the watch’s initial blue version. While the rhodium-plated indexes and the rhodium-plated hands are coated in white Super-LumiNova, the gradient of the dial, which is light in the middle and dark on the edge, gives the watch a sophisticated and profound personality. The smokey appearance of this limited edition is highlighted by the presence of two black opaline auxiliary counters. A supplementary point of interest in terms of style is that the alligator leather strap in black has a matching purple lining on the inside.
