What to know

The yellow titanium Centigraphe uses three registers with black and red scales to give short elapsed times a strong visual presence. Its fastest hand circles once per second on a scale divided into hundredths. A rocker at two controls starting, stopping and resetting instead of a conventional pair of chronograph pushers.

Hand-wound calibre 1506 uses an aluminium-alloy structure in this titanium version. The case measures 44mm across and 11mm thick, with a ceramic-inlaid bezel and matching articulated bracelet. The manufacture lists approximately 81g total weight. The hundredths scale describes the display; it should not be confused with a claim of independently certified timing accuracy.
