VANGUARD™ YACHTING CRAZY HOUR

VANGUARD YACHTING CRAZY HOURS™ 

The Vanguard Crazy Hours™ calls in for youthful and futuristic aesthetics. 

The material is into the spotlight, with the brushed stainless steel case and dial. An aesthetic that lives up to the eccentricity of the complication, with the iconic numbers of the Vanguard™ collection in blue, red, green or orange, that seem to strand out from the brushed stainless steel dial. 

The audacious numerals applied by hand and the colored luminescent hands perfectly complement the dial and robust winding crown. 

The strap is artistically integrated into the case with the help of two unseen screws. The rubber on the inside of the strap effortlessly takes the shape of the wrist, while the alligator on the top instills grace. Modeled to perfection, the handsome blend of rubber and alligator creates absolute harmony with the iconic Vanguard case. 

The lines of the case give a sporty and modern character to this collection, which has been designed to express the concept of time as an abstract construct. 

The Crazy Hours complication offers a unique reading of time, showing hour numerals in the most unconventional order. Thanks to a patented mechanism, the central hour hand literally jumps from one hour to the next, respectfully following the randomly numbers on the dial. Thereby, after every 60 minutes, the hour hand would jump to the next correct number. Meanwhile, the minute hand follows a conventional 60-minute cycle revolving around the dial. 

Time becomes a value that is personal, individual, and unique. You find yourself eagerly waiting at each 59th minute to observe the Crazy Hours’ mesmerizing jump. 

The Vanguard Crazy Hours establishes a new philosophy and proclaims independence from the established order of time.
