Edox Classe-Royale Limited Edition “Jackpot” chronograph

Edox Classe-Royale Limited Edition \"Jackpot\" chronograph

One of the most popular in Edox’s model range, the Classe-Royale family may be proud of its new –almost transparent– member.



Although I do not really understand the reason behind the name, I really dig the new Edox Classe-Royale Limited Edition “Jackpot” chronograph’s design.

Well, to be fair, this one was presented half a year ago, but I guess you can still find one at the Swiss brand’s authorized dealers.

Featuring an easily-recognizable design of the boxy case, the Jackpot edition hides nothing of its private parts allowing for an unobstructed view through its skeletonized dial and transparent caseback.

Beating inside case is automatic Edox chronograph caliber 95. Based on the ETA 2894S2 caliber, this one comes with a satin-finished surface without any extra decoration for the sake of better congruence with the hi-tech design of the case.
