Charriol – ROTONDE watch 2007
The ROTONDE watch 2007 is a resolutely sporty model. It looked every inch the part when launched in 2006, and that dynamic appearance is now matched by a corresponding functional capacity.

It arrived on the scene last autumn with its round case and notched bezel, adorned with six round screw heads on hexagonal lozenges. It now features a distinctive quartz chronograph which, in addition to the classic central seconds hand, also offers a retrograde 60-minute counter at 10 o’clock and a five-minute display on a retrograde counter at 2 o’clock, while the analog small seconds subdial appears at 6 o’clock. The ROTONDE chronograph comes in two lines composed of three models each. The “Black Line” is distinguished by a brand-new PVD charcoal grey coating that is both shiny and ultra-resistant.
Dominating the 42 mm-diameter case and its specially designed matching bracelet with the brand’s characteristic visible side screws echoed on the first links, the material provides a perfect backdrop for the steel or red-coloured accents. This eminently masculine character is reinforced by daring black-lacquered or red-lacquered dials, and a third particularly high-tech one in carbon fibre. The “All Steel” line is a more urban kind of sports model with all-steel case and bracelet, discreet touches of red on the bezel and a choice of black-lacquered, white-lacquered or carbon fibre dial.
