The Masterpiece Tradition Date GMT combines a simple, timeless design with a mechanical movement of the highest quality. Its steel case, 40 mm in diameter without fittings, forms a perfect unit with the different versions of the dial. The hour markers and hands vary from one version to another, ranging from metallic blue to rhodium-plated finishes or pink gold.
This model enhances the Masterpiece Tradition collection with additional modern functions such as a large date at 12 o’clock and a second time zone at 6 o’clock, on a dial that is mirror lacquered or carefully brushed to create a sunray effect.
Maurice Lacroix has increased the exclusivity of the watch even further by fitting it with a sapphire crystal case back. This gives an uninterrupted view of the superb circular graining and Côtes de Genève decoration of the automatic movement.
