Created by the famous Swiss designer Ruedi Külling, the new Xemex Piccadilly Chronograph Reserve ALL BLACK timepiece is simple in its functionality and elegant in its simplicity. Although the tiny round date indicator is a little off-balance there at four o’clock, the watch’s olive-gray dial still leaves strong impression being both highly legible and clear.

The 40mm case made of deep black galvanized steel nests the Soprod SO 7750 automatic movement, which is in essence a modified Valjoux 7750 industry’s work horse. Its screw-down crown guarantees water resistance of up to 50m, meaning that you can safely wash your hands wearing the watch but should avoid swimming or diving.
