Maurice Lacroix replica watches | | Maurice Lacroix PONTOS S Chronograph 43mm I've had the pleasure of reviewing multiple generations of Maurice Lacroix Pontos watches, including the sleeker Pontos models and the sportier Pontos S line. I think it's important to say that the Pontos family is more about market positioning and price than any one design or visual theme. For this reason, Pontos watches have fluctuated significantly over the years in terms of appearance, be it more branded and contemporary, or more classic and mainstream. Maurice Lacroix of Switzerland has once again evolved the Pontos and Pontos S collections into new models, including the Pontos S Chronograph 43mm which has been a mainstay of the brand for a long time. Compared to the Pontos S Chronograph of a few years ago, the latest generation of the Pontos S Chronograph watch is noticeably more classic, urban and mainstream in its appeal.
That said, Maurice Lacroix has introduced some welcome modern features like a ceramic bezel, and quick-release levers for the strap and bracelet - so this is by no means an old-fashioned watch. However, Maurice Lacroix did return to his beloved Swiss-made ETA Valjoux 7750 automatic chronograph movement, which is as reliable and convenient as the power source for the Pontos S chronograph. , but it is unobtrusive and commonplace. However, that doesn't mean the Valjoux 7750 is a poor caliber choice. It just means that watch lovers watching the new Pontos S Chronograph will love the result, but it might be hard to describe what the Pontos S Chronograph doesn't offer other watches on the market.

Maurice Lacroix has made other watches for collectors, and the Pontos S chronograph is aimed at mainstream luxury buyers who want good things but don't care much about originality. Familiar looks and affordable packaging or make a bold artistic statement on the wrist. So the Pontos S Chronograph 43mm should be good enough for watch lovers, but really aimed at people who own one or a few high-end watches, or who just want a versatile mechanical sports watch. "Dress up" when needed so as not to draw undue attention to them.
In terms of design, it can be said that Maurice Lacroix adopted its in-house TAG Heuer, as the Pontos S chronograph shares similarities with the TAG Heuer Carrera Calibre 16. Both watches have the same movement, the same case size (TAG Heuer makes the 43mm - wide version of the Carrera), similar dials, and similar visual personalities and themes. Maurice Lacroix is looking for value here, as the Pontos S chronograph is nearly $2,000 off the MSRP. As was the case with Maurice Lacroix, the Pontos S Chronograph 43mm really feels like the Swiss watch company is getting their money's worth.
The Maurice Lacroix brand DNA does not appear in the Pontos S chronograph design, but it is very subtle. What's more, you need to be very familiar with the Maurice Lacroix brand to discover the relevant design features, such as the form of the stepped lugs, the circular tapered hands and the special design of the curved chronograph pushers and lugs. Despite these relatively small (but influential) elements, Maurice Lacroix leans heavily towards "mainstream" (i.e. vaguely branded) looks, designed for those consumers who buy "looks" and will take away from any Get it from an effective trusted brand. them.
The Pontos S Chronograph 43mm watch you see here is the reference PT6038-SSL2H-430-C and has a dark blue (almost black dial), steel case and black ceramic bezel. This reference includes a timepiece with a matching steel bracelet as well as a fabric-style blue strap. Oddly enough, Maurice Lacroix also sells the same model with a strap only (reference PT6038-SSL22-430-1) or a fabric strap only (reference PT6038-SSL24-430-4). watch). Given that the price points are relatively close to each other, I don't really see how this wouldn't lead to some choice paralysis. Wouldn't it be better for Maurice Lacroix to just offer a version with a bracelet and strap? What's more, in addition to this dark blue dial, the Pontos S Chronograph also offers a silver dial, and the chronograph has two black subdials. The silver one has a nice "panda dial" look.
Maurice Lacroix also produced a more refined version of a relatively similar Pontos called the Pontos Chronograph 43mm (as opposed to the Pontos S Chronograph 43mm). Although the movement and case are the same size, it costs less and has a more classic (as opposed to sporty) personality. The most important thing about the Pontos S is the ceramic bezel, the more eye-catching dial, and the nuances in the design of the case and bracelet. The Pontos S Chronograph 43mm case is also water resistant to 100 meters and features a slightly domed AR-coated sapphire crystal on top. There is another sapphire crystal on the case back, allowing you to admire the mechanical movement inside the case.

Overall, this is a nice and sturdy steel watch with a sporty feel, but enough polished and shiny elements to make it stand out in the room. The ceramic bezel has a thin design with a tachymeter scale printed on it. This is a popular material because ceramic is very scratch resistant and pairs well with the sapphire crystal on the top of the watch. One complaint is that the Pontos S Chronograph is on the thick side at 43mm, which means it needs to be fitted snugly so it doesn't flow on the wrist, since it's a heavier watch. If you had to compare it to a car, it would definitely be a luxury SUV, but mostly for city driving.
I happen to love the Pontos S Chronograph watch on the bracelet the most. I think it looks good and is comfortable, although the watch has a lot of fashion goodness. Likewise, if you have both a strap and a steel bracelet, you can switch between the two with relative ease with a quick-release spring lever. Given the fabric nature of the strap, it's a bit stiffer and has a deployant clasp. Like many Maurice Lacroix watches, the strap comes with a small applied Maurice Lacroix logo pin.
Going back to the inside of the watch, Maurice Lacroix refers to the Swiss-made Valjoux 7750 movement as the ML112 movement. It has a power reserve of about two days and runs at 4Hz. It features a secondary seconds hand at 9 o'clock on the dial, as well as a 12-hour chronograph and day/date complication window. The dial of the watch itself is dark blue and looks almost black. The applied hour markers are beautiful, but the level of luminescence on the dial is anemic for a sports watch. Application rings around the upper and lower sub-dials provide a welcome sense of visual depth and also help to accentuate the chronograph (vs. chronograph) portion of the dial. It's interesting how Maurice Lacroix played with colour by putting some of the minute markers on the periphery of the dial in a red chequered pattern.
Maurice Lacroix has a very nice watch for those who find this style in their collection. The Pontos S Chronograph 43mm is also great as a versatile luxury sports watch for everyday wear, for those who only wear one beautiful watch at a time. Distinctive looks and originality may not be its strong suit, but that's not what Maurice Lacroix is looking for in this collection. Otherwise, it's an excellent high-quality mainstream luxury mechanical watch with a personality that stems from what collectors enjoy today.
