Chronofighter Oversize GMT +30 India

Graham’s dual timezone watch on the occasion of India’s Independence Day

Created for India and Indians across the world, this dual timezone watch is designed for half-hour time differences and thus help overseas Indians stay synchronised with their homeland (or the other way round if they have relatives abroad). Combining elaborate technical processes and a bold design, the limited edition Chronofighter Oversize GMT +30 India chronograph is an easy- to-read watch that grants its wearer perfect display for both.

The aesthetic appeal of this watch in its stainless steel and red gold (18K) case is enhanced by an elaborate black sapphire bezel and a large see-through sapphire case back. The colours of India are well represented on the dial. Its minutes and seconds counters are in green, while its chrono, minutes counter hands and tips of its GMT and GMT +30 hands are in orange. To complete the design and technology, a fast-action Chronofighter start/stop lever is re- inforced by an ergonomic black PVD coating.

Its other specifications are no less remarkable: a 47 mm steel case, calibre G1733 automatic bi-compax chronograph, 28 jewels and 28’800 A/h (4Hz) Incabloc shock absorber. It also boasts of a domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on both faces, white super-Lumi Nova hands and numerals, a skeleton GMT hand with a white super-LumiNova head and orange contour, and an integrated black rubber strap. It has a power reserve of 48 hours and is water resistant down to a depth of 330 metres.

Graham traces its origins to London clockmaker George Graham (1673-1751), who is considered the father of the chronograph. Now, more than a quarter millennium after his death, Graham is a privately-owned Swiss watch company that makes its timepieces at La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland.
