There are watches inspired by the world of sailing and others that are born directly from the experience of those who live the sea every day. The new Locman Montecristo Yachting belongs to this second category.
Designed on the Island of Elba, where Locman has been based since 1986, the Montecristo Yachting inherits decades of collaborations with the world of boating, offshore racing, and open-sea navigation. It is not simply a sports chronograph, but a tool designed to accompany sailors and sea enthusiasts both during competitions and in everyday life.
A profoundly marine DNA
The link between Locman and the sea is part of the brand's very identity.
The Tuscan manufacturer, overlooking the Gulf of Marina di Campo, has built a strong nautical tradition over the years through important sailing events, partnerships with the Italian Navy, and collaborations with organizations involved in marine environment protection. From this experience comes the Montecristo Yachting, a watch that brings the spirit of navigation and competition to your wrist.
A chronograph designed for racing
The element that distinguishes this collection is its function dedicated to race starts.
The chronograph integrates a practical split time function, which allows intermediate times to be measured without interrupting the main measurement. On the rehaut, there are three chromatic indicators positioned at 5, 10, and 15 minutes, designed to make reading the pre-start phases during a sailing race immediate.
A simple, intuitive solution perfectly consistent with the real needs of sailors.
Details that tell the story of the sea
Every element of the Montecristo Yachting recalls the world of navigation.
The small seconds counter reproduces a refined wind rose, while the geographical coordinates of the Island of Montecristo, symbol of the Tuscan Archipelago and source of inspiration for the entire collection, are engraved on the rehaut.
The titanium case back also celebrates the sea through the engraving of a starfish, a further detail that underlines the strong bond between Locman and its territory.
Materials designed to withstand the marine environment
The robust 42 mm case combines AISI 316L steel, also known as marine steel for its high corrosion resistance, with a titanium case back that helps improve lightness and comfort.
The characteristic "bridge" construction, a distinctive element of the Montecristo collection, makes the watch immediately recognizable and helps to reduce overall weight without compromising the solidity of the structure.
The scratch-resistant sapphire crystal protects the dial, while water resistance up to 100 meters (10 ATM) allows it to tackle all nautical activities and life at sea without problems.
Swiss precision for maximum reliability
The Montecristo Yachting is powered by a reliable Swiss Made Ronda 3540.D1 chronograph movement, chosen to offer precision, robustness, and reliability even in the most demanding conditions of use.
The chronograph functions, combined with the ability to measure intermediate times, make this timepiece a true instrument dedicated to sports navigation, while maintaining practicality and ease of use in everyday life.
Three new interpretations of the Yachting spirit
The new collection introduces three unprecedented color variations, characterized by redesigned dials and color combinations inspired by the sea.
Among the novelties, a version with blue PVD treatment stands out, which gives the case an even more technical and contemporary look, reinforcing the sporty character of the watch without sacrificing the typical elegance of Locman creations.
The spirit of the sea, always on your wrist
With the new Montecristo Yachting, Locman once again confirms its ability to transform nautical culture into authentic Italian design.
Resistant materials, truly useful functions during navigation, and numerous references to the world of sailing make this chronograph an ideal companion for those who live the sea with passion, but also for those who want a sports watch with an authentic character deeply linked to its origins.
The Montecristo Yachting is not simply born to measure time: it is born to accompany every route, every start, and every new adventure.
