Structured design with everyday usability
The design of the Pontos Day Date is inspired by the renowned clarity of the Pontos line, complemented by a harmoniously integrated weekday display at 12 o'clock and a date window at 6 o'clock. Both elements blend seamlessly into the balanced dial layout, making the watch particularly suitable for everyday use. The applied indices are slim and clearly legible, while the hands—available in polished silver or blued—ensure excellent legibility.
The dial is available in several colors, including classic black, textured silver, or an elegant dark blue with a sunburst finish. The surface finish creates depth and a play of light without being obtrusive. The case is made of satin-brushed and polished stainless steel, measures 41 mm in diameter, and offers a harmonious balance of presence and elegance. The narrow lugs, domed sapphire crystal, and minimalist bezel underscore the modern, almost architectural design language.
With a height of around 11 mm, the Pontos Day Date fits comfortably under the cuff, but remains a constant statement on the wrist – especially when combined with a finely crafted leather or stainless steel bracelet.
Mechanics with function – the caliber ML143
Inside is the Maurice Lacroix Caliber ML143 – a modified automatic caliber based on the Sellita SW220-1. In addition to the hour, minute, and central seconds, it also features a day and date display and a power reserve of approximately 38 hours. Its frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour ensures smooth, precise operation.
The movement is visible through a screw-down sapphire crystal caseback, where it features a Maurice Lacroix rotor and decorative finishes. The display is operated via the screw-down crown – intuitive and reliable. The caliber is shock-resistant, easy to maintain, and renowned for its longevity.
With this technical equipment, the Pontos Day Date not only offers additional functionality, but also real added value in everyday life – ideal for those who value structure and style equally.
Variations for modern classics
The Pontos Day Date is available in a variety of dial colors and strap options – from a classic calfskin strap with contrasting stitching to a sporty yet elegant stainless steel bracelet. The watch is versatile and, with its striking yet understated design, offers a stylish addition to both business and casual looks.
With the Pontos Day Date, Maurice Lacroix proves that functional complications, modern design and reliable mechanics are not a contradiction – but rather create a convincing overall picture.
