Edox is the official timekeeper to the Powerboat Class-1 World Champions and to celebrate this partnership, Edox introduces the Class-1 Chronoffshore Automatic. This timepiece features a sturdy and sharply contoured case middle along with a new bezel in scratch-resistant black ceramic, a high-tech material used in the world of ocean racing. The black carbon fibre dial has a giant-sized ‘1’, for the Class-1 collection, and the case back is embossed with the profile of the propeller that powers these super-boats. The new Class-1 Chronoffshore Automatic has an automatic helium valve and screwed-in crowns and push-pieces, which allows water-resistance to 500 metres.
