This model belongs to the Chronomat line of the 90s, conceived as a high-precision sports chronograph with technical aesthetics and a professional profile. The ref. B55045 is distinguished by its steel construction and gold-plated elements, typical of the two-color versions. Its design with "rider tabs" and tri-compax layout position it as a watch of aeronautical inspiration and robust character.

In the description of the watches when it is marked "in running status" it means that the watch is in operation. Since collector's watches often have delicate and complex mechanisms, the buyer is responsible for any general service, overhaul, battery change, adjustment or repair that may be necessary. We do not guarantee the perfect functioning of any watch. All photographs of our watches are original and have been taken by our photographers, that is to say, we do not work with stock photography and that is why the photographs are considered part of the cataloging.
