Graham's BaselWorld release is yet another highly technological timepiece that completes the Superlight Carbon trilogy.
This special limited edition timepiece, dubbed the Chronofighter Superlight Carbon, is made of ultra-lightweight carbon fiber. The total weight of the timepiece is no more than 100 grams!
Graham has used the superlight technology to create such a lightweight timepiece. More precisely, four different high-technology forms in carbon processing have been used to create the Chronograph Superlight Carbon. The result is a watch that is extremely light and comfortable to wear, but also rough enough to resist all kinds of shocks and survive the passage of time.
The case of the new Chronofighter Superlight Carbon is made of carbon speckled composite, which has a high capacity of shock absorption. The carbon matrix of the middle part of the case is directly cut into the solid material. Graham's emblematic start and stop lever on the left side of the case is made of a solid block of carbon machined in multiple layers, to ensure more stiffness and better usability.
The chronograph enables the measurement of speed thanks to a tachymeter scale and a reversed minute’s counter with a white painted indicator showing the starting point. The watch face is framed with a carbon fiber dial, while the case rests on a grey integrated “Clous de Paris” strap. The watch measures 47mm in diameter, and it is water resistant to 100 meters. The see-through case-back reveals the automatic chronograph movement G1749, as well as the orange "superlight carbon" inscription and limited edition serial number.
The movement is mounted on 25 jewels, and it beats at a frequency of 28'800 vibrations per hour. It can run on power reserve for about two days, or 48 hours. The integrated Incabloc shock absorber protects the critical alignment of its components in the case of an unexpected physical shock.
Graham Chronofighter Superlight Carbon, reference number 2CCBK.B21A, retails at about €8,838.00 EUR. The watch is available from April 2016. Limited Edition of 50 Pieces.

Graham Chronofighter Vintage 15th Anniversary Edition
This large, masculine model distinguished by its oversized chronograph trigger that starts and stops the time-measuring instrument, recalls the bygone era when stopwatches used by pilots were, in fact, just large pocket watches strapped over bomber jackets.

Since the gloves inhibited free movement of fingers, the dependable chronograph trigger system had to be developed in order to help them use their watches with ea...
