Stowa launches Chrono WRC Stage 1 automatic chronograph

Stowa, the official timekeeper and watch partner of the World Rally Championship (WRC), has released the Chrono WRC Stage 1, a new automatic chronograph inspired by motorsport aesthetics.

The timepiece is available in two versions: a natural stainless steel model and a black-coated Stage 1 Black edition. Both models feature a 44mm diameter case, a sapphire crystal, and 100m water resistance. The design utilizes a matte grey and anthracite two-tone dial accented with bright WRC orange on the central chronograph seconds hand and the 30-minute counter.

Internally, the watch is powered by the Sellita SW510 automatic movement, which provides approximately 50 hours of power reserve. The Stage 1 Steel version can be paired with a stainless steel bracelet or a black silicone strap, while the Stage 1 Black edition comes exclusively with a black silicone strap. Prices start from EUR 2,990.
