Angelus Instrument de Vitesse Mono-Pusher Chronograph

The Instrument de Vitesse from Angelus' prestigious La Fabrique collection is a mono-pusher chronograph dedicated to timing short bursts up to 60 seconds. Powered by Angelus' in-house calibre A5000 manual winding movement, this chronograph revives the golden age of timed racing. Presented in a refined retro sports aesthetic, the 39mm stainless steel case houses the manual movement with superior finishes. The dial is offered in ivory white or ebony black, with applied Arabic numerals and luminous hands and markers. Around the outer edge of the domed dial runs a tachymeter scale graduated from 60 to 500, while the centre displays hours and minutes. Key functionality lies in the single crown which also acts as the pushpiece to start and stop the central chronograph seconds hand. Limited to just 25 pieces each in ivory white on calfskin strap or ebony black on nubuck strap, the Instrument de Vitesse is a finely crafted tribute to Angelus' legacy and a tool for amateur enthusiasts.
