Pequignet Moorea Triomphe (4512448)

This watch stands out for its bold two-tone style, distinctive Moorea bracelet links, and clear display of its Swiss automatic chronograph movement. It mixes strong design with refined detailing, giving it a unique character within the Pequignet collection

The Pequignet Moorea Triomphe Gold Steel Chronograph has a striking and luxurious appearance. Its black dial contrasts well with the gold-tone markers, hands, and chronograph rings, giving it a bold and elegant look. The polished steel case, combined with a gold bezel insert, adds weight and presence on the wrist. A sapphire crystal protects the dial and keeps the watch clear and scratch-resistant. The bracelet uses the Moorea signature link design, with polished steel sections and gold-tone centre pieces that give the watch a distinctive two-tone character

The movement is visible through the sapphire caseback, showing off its decorated rotor and clean finishing. It is a Swiss automatic chronograph movement with 27 jewels, built to run reliably with everyday use. The rotor winds smoothly with wrist motion, and the chronograph pushers operate with a crisp and positive feel. The movement’s layout, seen from the front, is neatly arranged with running seconds at six, a 30-minute counter at three, and a 12-hour counter at nine

The Moorea Triomphe line is part of Pequignet’s long-standing effort to blend French design with Swiss mechanical quality. The Moorea bracelet links, introduced decades ago, became a signature of the brand and remain a key feature today. The Triomphe models added stronger case lines and chronograph complications to the classic design, giving the collection a more sporty and modern personality. This specific gold-and-steel version continues that heritage, offering a bold and recognisable style that reflects Pequignet’s unique place in European watchmaking

The watch appears to be in very good condition, with a clean dial, bright case, and sharp gold accents. The crystal looks clear, and the caseback shows only light wear. The leather strap shows mild use but remains in good shape
