Alexander Shorokhoff is expanding its ‘Happy Second’ model collection due to the success of the bold first version, which comes with a completely new colour design.
The new chronograph ‘Happy Second Orange’ shines with a warm retro orange dial that transitions into a deep dark brown on the side – an unusual colour combination for Alexander Shorokhoff, who usually delights with his bold, colourful creations.
Yet, the brand stays true to its avant-garde design. To give the automatic chronograph a special ‘avant-garde kick’, the central chronograph second hand is designed in several bright colours. Once the start/stop pusher at 2 o’clock is pressed, the watch comes to life, and the multi-coloured second hand begins its joyful dance.
The case of this model is a completely new development with a diameter of 42 mm and a height of just 12.40 mm. The rounded design of the case and pushers gives the watch an elegant and modern aesthetic. The front glass has also been improved. Unlike traditional domed sapphire crystals, this model features a cylindrical glass, providing an interesting contrast to the flat look of the case.
Inside, the precise ETA 2894 chronograph ticks, with a total height of only 6.10 mm. It offers a stop function with a central second hand, a decentralised minute display at 9 o’clock, and an hour display at 6 o’clock. The rotor, as with all Alexander Shorokhoff watches, is intricately hand-engraved and refined.
The soft calfskin strap with light contrasting stitching seamlessly integrates into the overall concept of the watch.
