GV2 Montreux Chronograph Collection


by John Sealander

Inspired by a city known for music, this innovative, classically styled chronograph strikes just the right note with watch aficionados.

GV2 WatchesLocated on Lake Geneva, Montreux, Switzerland is one of the world’s most picturesque and sophisticated cities. Montreux is synonymous with music and is home to the world famous Montreux Jazz Festival. Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Igor Stravinsky, Ian Anderson and Freddie Mercury have all called Montreux home. It is fitting that one of the most beautiful GV2 timepieces ever produced takes its name from this fabled Swiss city.

The 44 mm GV2 Montreux is spectacular. This superb limited edition chronograph features a unique chronograph movement that takes timing events to a new level. In watch mode, the hands function as any three-hand configuration timepiece. In chronograph mode, the three hands turn into hour, minute, and second totalizers. Even more amazingly, the big date display becomes an accurate 1/100 of a second totalizer. Two well-placed pushers and a multi-function crown control this high-tech masterpiece. Once you get used to the accuracy and versatility of this innovative timepiece, you never go back to conventional chronographs.

The GV2 Montreux isn’t just a technological marvel; it’s an artistic marvel as well. The beautiful textured dial is engraved with an intricate guilloché pattern with two large date wheels that rotate in opposite directions, revealing the date through a whimsical brass plate at 6 o’clock. Traditional blued Feuille hands, a fluted onion crown, and a functional tachymeter scale on the chapter ring complete the inspired design. The beautiful Montreux chronograph is available in four variations. The Collection includes stainless steel, IP rose gold, and IP yellow gold models that can fitted with a choice of a luxurious black or dark brown patterned leather strap.
