Pontos S Solar 42mm Black Dial

Maurice Lacroix gives the Pontos S Solar, reference PT1008-SSL52-330-1, a smoked translucent black dial with a date display and rhodium-plated faceted indexes and hands filled with white Super-LumiNova. A green aluminum unidirectional rotating diver bezel adds the only strong color to the 42 mm stainless steel case.

The Ronda 2040.D solar quartz caliber is Swiss made, so it draws power from light rather than needing a battery swap on a regular schedule. Water resistance is 20 bar (200 m), and the case is 13 mm thick with a specially engraved case back. A stainless steel bracelet completes the build. It is a dependable, no-fuss diver for a wearer who wants a dark dial with a single green note and a movement that looks after itself.
