There are quite a lot of design awards, really a lot. But the Red Dot Design Awards is easily one of the most widely recognized and important of them all. The new Maurice Lacroix Masterpiece Chronograph Skeleton is among the 2017 winners.
The Masterpiece Chronograph Skeleton collection launched in 2016 and is a combination of an open worked movement and a chronograph. When you are in the market for a chronograph there are many options. It’s probably one of the most popular complications, but the skeletonized combo makes for something different.
The new Maurice Lacroix Masterpiece Chronograph Skeleton focuses on blue
The addition to the Masterpiece Chronograph Skeleton is a nice version with a blue dial, blue alligator leather strap and a stainless steel case. If you want to go all out, there is also a version with a blue PVD coating. This one is limited to 100 pieces.
Blue is a very stylish option if you want something different than the normal stainless steel or black. Just look at the uber-stylish Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Memovox Boutique Edition.
Back to the Maurice Lacroix. Since the 1990s, Maurice Lacroix has been crafting skeleton watches, understanding the need to ensure structural rigidity fused with alluring open-work dial detail. The open-worked dial has a very pure appearance with surplus material removed using precision laser cutting. If you want a chronograph with something special and want to look a bit further than the usual suspects, give this Maurice Lacroix a try.
