Discover Angelus’ new timepiece, the Instrument of Speed, a single-push chronograph with a refined design and precise mechanics, a piece that marks a new era for the brand.
A minimalist and elegant design
The Speed Instrument is distinguished by its housing of 39mm of remarkable finesse of only 9.27mm. Its careful design offers an almost perfect fit on all wrists. The finish, mainly polished, is enhanced with brushed sides for a touch of originality. Its domed anti-reflective treated sapphire crystal and its water resistance up to 30 meters make it an ideal companion for everyday life.
The notable change lies in its chronograph mechanism integrated into the crown, positioned at 3 hours, offering a cleaner aesthetic and a sense of increased sophistication. The watches are completed with leather straps, brown for the black dial and blue nubuck for the white dial, closed with a pin buckle.
Choice between two dials
Two dial options are offered: an ivory white and an ebony black, each featuring a Base 1000 tachymeter scale around the edge, in shades of blue and orange for the ivory, and caramel and red for the ebony . Inside this scale is a traditional 60 second scale.
Applied Arabic numerals, filled with Super-LumiNova, ensure excellent readability in the dark. Syringe-style hands indicate hours and minutes, while the large central seconds hand serves as the sole indicator for the chronograph, limiting time measurement to one-minute events.
A movement with a notable legacy
The Angelus A5000 monopusher manual movement powers the Speed Instrument, offering 42 hours power reserve at 21,600 vph. This caliber is the result of an evolution of a series with a rich heritage, originally designed by Francois-Paul Journe and Denis Flageollet. First used in the Cartier CPCP Monopushoir, this movement is a testament to watchmaking excellence and an impressive history.
Supply and availability
The Angelus Speed Instrument is a limited edition, with only 25 pieces available for each dial variant. Proposed to 17 100 Eurosthis model represents a perfect fusion between tradition and innovation, appealing to watch lovers looking for a unique piece with remarkable characteristics.
Despite its recent orientation towards more traditional designs, Angelus continues to fascinate with its know-how and its capacity to innovate, the Instrument of Speed being the latest testimony to its excellence in watchmaking design and mechanics. A timepiece that will undoubtedly appeal to collectors and watch enthusiasts around the world.
