Housed in a 45mm round stainless steel case with a diamond-like carbon (DLC) treatment, this Chopard Superfast Split Second presents a fixed black DLC bezel engraved with tachymeter markings. A screw-down black rubber-covered crown and solid case back contribute to water resistance rated at 100 meters, while the scratch-resistant sapphire crystal protects the black dial beneath.
The black dial is fitted with luminous hands and index hour markers, Arabic numeral minute indicators at five-minute intervals, and minute markers running along the outer rim. Four sub-dials handle the chronograph functions, displaying 60 seconds, 30 minutes, 12 hours, and date. The automatic movement delivers a 42-hour power reserve, and the watch is worn on a black leather strap measuring 22mm at the lug, secured by a deployment clasp.
Reference 168542-3001 carries the Swiss Made designation and was produced as a non-numbered limited edition of 1,000 pieces globally. This example is presented with its original box and papers.
