Ronda has added a further chronograph to its “Startech” product line. The new 12 1⁄2”’-sized Caliber 5040.E quartz watch movement features a calendar system that combines a normal date display with a horizontal day display at the 12 o’clock position.

The new Startech model retains the classic three-eye 3-6-9 look. In addition to a center stop second, its chronograph functions extend to a 1/10 second and a separate 30-minute and 10-hour counter.

Ronda’s 28.00 mm-diameter Startech range of watch movements now runs to 18 multifunctions and chronographs.
