The C-1 Shadow Chronograph is a first for Aera, with a 904L steel case finished in a black PVD coating. This treatment gives a deep matt black appearance and unparalleled surface hardness and the matching curved bezel features engraved markings and numerals in-filled with a gloss black lacquer. Protected by the domed sapphire crystal, the single-piece dial of the C-1 Shadow is also finished in matte black with white markings on the rehaut and twin recessed sub-dials. For low-light situations, the white tips of the sub-dial hands are in Swiss Super-LumiNova® Grade X1, which glows green. Grade X1 luminova is also applied to the black-framed sword hands to ensure crisp legibility. The AERA logo at 12, however, is machined from solid Globolight™ for an arctic white glow, while the central chronograph seconds hand and matching register pointers are rendered in vivid red lacquer.

The beating mechanical heart of the C-1 is a Swiss-made Sellita SW510 BH b Bi-compax Elabore grade automatic movement with a 56-hour power reserve. Setting the time or manual winding is done through the central screw-in crown flanked by the pushers at 2 and 4 o’clock, the former to start and stop the chronograph’s stop-watch function indicated by the display’s main second hand, and the latter for reset.

The central chronograph seconds hand times to 1/5th of a second on the dished rehaut of the one-piece dial, while sub dials to right and left, are timed minutes and running seconds. Like all Aera watches, the C-1’s movement is protected by a flush-fitting, screw-in case back engraved with key specifications and its own unique serial number.

Included with the C-1 Shadow are two integrated straps in Black FKM Scuba Rubber and Orange Italian Pebble Grain Leather with PVD 904L buckles, both fully interchangeable with a simple 2-pin quick-release mechanism and a Black Pebble Grain Italian Leather watch pouch.

    A  bold  new  take  on  the  chronograph
    The Chronograph is the quintessential sports watch. First developed in the early 1800’s to measure horse racing, the Chronograph really came into its own with the advent of the internal combustion engine and the aeroplane when mankind’s increasing speed called for ever more accurate timing devices for navigation and racing. The golden age of the Chronograph however was the 1950s and 1960s when these activities became the preoccupation of amateur sportsmen.

    Engineered to be different

    Aera was founded by a small but dedicated group of watch enthusiasts. All of us shared the same enthusiasm for the classic tool watches of the past. We just figured they could do with being gently modernised. Read about 8 reasons we think our watches are pretty special.
