Mo'rice Lacroix Special

Recommended Posts

Piccolo

Just got this Maurice Lacroix Pontos S Diver in. It's a special edition from 2014, to support the Movember charity.

 

Details from MLC themselves here:

More info on the actual watch here:

This one is number 9 of the second 14, it's a 43mm dive watch, water resistant to 600m, with a compressor-style case – two crowns, one to rotate the inner bezel and one to set the time and to wind the movement, here a Selitta SW200. It delivers 38 hours of power reserve.

 

 

My first impressions are good, it's really nicely built and well finished. The dial is black, but matte which actually lightens it a bit. It's got nice depth to the dial as well, due to the internal rotating bezel. I like the touches of red on the second and minute hands, tied in with the spots on the indices as well. I like the Mo detail too - something a bit fun, and a good cause!

 

The leather Nato is super comfy, very thin profile, but in no way feels flimsy. It's stamped with the charity details too, and has a nicely marked brushed buckle.

 

Anyway - enough babble and on to a few pics (please do not expect too much picture wise!)

Very cool looking piece. The extra details & limited nature add to the overall appeal (also a very worthwhile charity that its inception contributed towards).

 

Looks well at home on your wrist, enjoy it.......

Very cool. The Pontos S Diver is normally a super sexy watch but add a 'stache and it goes off the charts!
