What we know about the 421, stated plainly. And what is not yet settled, stated just as plainly
A 42 mm round case with a double-domed sapphire crystal that returns the light like the lens of an optical instrument. Two pushers command the chronograph; the knurled crown bears the engraved emblem, while the case flank carries a screwed plaque with the name of the expedition. Nothing superfluous, everything legible at a glance — in the mountains, on the track or in the city
A salmon dial in a single tone, its matching sub-dials engraved with concentric circles. Red appears only where it matters: the chronograph seconds hand, the word chronograph and a fine ring that frames the dial. Applied Arabic numerals and steel dauphine hands make it legible at a glance
Long before photography, the expedition carried its own shutters on board: the painters Fernando Brambila and Juan Ravenet. In pencil and watercolour, they captured landscapes, coastlines, animals and the faces of distant cultures with astonishing fidelity. The Coral borrows from their palette the warm hue of the reefs and the glint of the sun on the water at dawn
