Accurist 7366 Mens Blue Retro Racer Chronograph Watch

Product Information

Where the Retro Racer benefited from the leather strap, this model is much better matched with the 22mm stainless steel bracelet. Accurist expanded internationally, opened a showroom on the US and offices in the heart of Switzerland’s watch industry. It's funny you replied to this thread as your comment on my pagani design post put me back down this path last week. Here you can review this item, and / or upload an image of it, or even an image of you wearing this item.

The Retro Racer has a qaurtz movement, the usual chrono functions and a Milanese mesh bracelet option too. The box is small, in a matte-shine dark purple, with flip-top and viewing window, and presents very well. Please note you will have to cover postage fees for the repair for which we recommend using a tracked service. Despite the intention to produce affordable watches, the company was also keen to promote the quality of their products. In 1946, working from premises in St John Street in London’s Clerkenwell district, Asher and Rebecca Loftus established Accurist with the intention of creating a brand name of lasting value.The brushing on the case is good, with a polished beveled edge between side and top, as is the bezel. They were then able to avoid the worst of the competition from quartz watches by embracing the technology, switching production to Japan and subsequently to China. The strap is a dark brown w/ white stitching 'Monza' style strap, supple leather, signed, and is very good quality.

There are versions of the Retro Racer with stainless steel Milanese bracelets, but I prefer this variation with the leather racing strap. Where the Retro Racer recreates the sporty aesthetics of the 1970s, this model goes for a more formal style from the same period.
