Maurice Lacroix Aikon Quartz Chrono 44 Mm Camouflage Limited Edition

Posted on by

The AIKON Quartz Chrono Camouflage from Maurice Lacroix is masculine, modern and totally on trend.

The timeless camouflage pattern, invented during the First World War, looks just as fresh more than a century later. It never ages because it’s so infinitely open to new interpretations. Maurice Lacroix elected to go with a chic variant of a camo pattern for this limited series of 500 timepieces. The random design in motley shades of grey is a perfect match for the concrete, tarmac, and glass facades that typify today’s urban environments, and the world of Maurice Lacroix.

Camouflaging covers the entire surface of the chronograph in the AIKON Quartz family. This uninterrupted medley of shapes spreading across its dial, case and strap combine to create a design that is both uniform and variegated at the same time. The advantage of camouflage is that it blends in with almost everything.

For the first time in the history of watchmaking, this über-cool pattern is used not just on a dial, nor just on a strap, but over the entire surface of a streamlined watch.

With its 44 mm stainless steel case, the AIKON Quartz Chrono Camouflage stands up to crowds. This chronograph with two counters and date display is set on a five-link steel strap. Using an innovative transfer process, the strap was covered over its entire surface in the same pattern as the dial for this model. It is fitted with Maurice Lacroix’s proprietary EasyChange system. You only need one hand to change it for a leather strap with a black technical canvas-type surface. These two straps come with the watch in a special presentation box that also features a camo pattern.
