Angelus Ebony Black Timepiece: The Single-Push-Button Chronograph with Three Scales

The Angelus Instrument de Mesures Ebony Black showcases the full technical prowess of this in-house single-push-piece chronograph. Its deep black dial highlights the three measurement scales—telemeter, pulsometer, and tachymeter—through a color scheme of blue, orange, and cream that makes the information instantly easy to read.

The dial’s three-dimensional construction, achieved through a particularly elaborate manufacturing process, creates a genuine sense of depth. Each level serves its own function, offering a perfectly balanced visual hierarchy while reinforcing the watch’s character as a scientific instrument.
Its 39-mm steel case, paired with a box-shaped sapphire crystal, draws on the design language of the great chronographs of the 1950s and 1960s without simply being a vintage reissue. The syringe-style hands and understated proportions contribute to this balance between watchmaking heritage and modernity.

Powered by the Angelus A5000 in-house manual-winding caliber, featuring a column wheel and a horizontal clutch, this limited edition of just 25 pieces embodies the brand’s historic expertise in the field of functional chronographs.

The Ebony Black Instrument de Mesures will appeal to collectors seeking a technical, understated, and refined watch, in which every detail is designed to enhance readability and precision.
