About this entry

80% of key specs known. Missing: hardening, crown, bracelet offered.

"Pontchartrain Watch Co. 1st Edition", limited to 50 numbered pieces (01/50 to 50/50), listed since 2021; both colours were available on 2026-10-31 at $1,495. Spec sheet: Swiss ETA 2892-A2 (21 jewels, 28,800 vph, 42-hour power reserve as quoted), decorated with blued screws, perlage and Côtes de Genève, adjusted to +4 to +6 s/day; hours, minutes and seconds only (no date); 42mm polished steel case with brushed accents, 10.5mm overall height, 52mm lug to lug, 22mm lugs, exhibition caseback, 95g on the strap, sapphire with anti-reflective coating, 5 ATM; raised polished Arabic numerals and indices and polished hands with Super-LumiNova; crown with the DWC-Pontchartrain fleur-de-lys; calf strap with deployant clasp and quick-release spring bars. The spec text also describes the brand's steel bracelet, but the listing offers only the two strap options, so no bracelet is recorded. It shares the case dimensions of the City Collection Exhibition 42mm but uses the ETA 2892-A2 instead of the 2824-2, so it is kept as its own model.
