Maurice Lacroix trims the AIKON chronograph to 42mm

Maurice Lacroix marks the AIKON’s tenth anniversary by reducing its automatic chronograph from 44mm to 42mm and making the case one millimetre thinner. The familiar six-claw bezel remains, but rectangular pushers replace the previous screw-down design and new crown guards sharpen the profile. A deeper Clous de Paris texture gives the dial more relief.

Five versions comprise blue, black and green dials with matching counters, plus silver-and-blue and gold-tone-and-black combinations. Hours, minutes, small seconds, chronograph counters, day and date share the display. The updated automatic ML112 offers more than 60 hours of reserve, according to the manufacturer. A revised Easy Change attachment conceals the bracelet-release button and allows tool-free switching between steel and rubber.
