The Strike Two Stellar Blue is about refining a language Chronoswiss has made its own. Limited to 100 pieces, it takes the brand’s horizontal regulator and pushes it into darker, more technical territory. The matte 40mm steel case tones down the theatrics, giving the watch a purposeful, almost instrument-like presence that feels contemporary without abandoning its mechanical soul.
The dial is where the watch truly earns its name. A deep, CVD-coated blue surface is hand-guillochéd with a linear motif that plays with light in a controlled, almost kinetic way. It’s not decorative excess, but disciplined texture, guiding the eye across the dial. The silvered, rhodium-plated small-seconds subdial at 9 o’clock provides crisp contrast, while the twin bridges reveal just enough of the underlying mechanics to remind you this is watchmaking.
Powering it all is the in-house Calibre C.6000, visible through the sapphire crystal case back, with finishing that mirrors the dial’s geometry and a solid 55-hour reserve. The Strike Two Stellar Blue feels focused, coherent, and confident, a modern Chronoswiss that looks forward without forgetting where it comes from.
