Crafted for the style-conscious man who values both form and function, this self-winding watch features a sporty leather strap and a bold 44mm case that makes a confident statement.

This attention to detail ensures the watch stands out without relying on overt branding, making it ideal for those who appreciate understated elegance with a touch of heritage.

Key Features

• Automatic Movement: Powered by the natural motion of your wrist, this self-winding mechanism ensures reliable timekeeping without batteries. The movement operates through kinetic energy generated by daily wear, storing power in a mainspring that gradually releases to keep the watch running. This eliminates the hassle of battery changes and supports sustainable, long-term use. Ideal for those who value mechanical craftsmanship, it delivers consistent accuracy with minimal maintenance.
• Iconic Petit Piqué Design: The watch face features a crocodile-shaped cutout outlined in metal, incorporating Lacoste’s signature petit piqué texture in colored aluminum—a direct nod to the brand’s tennis heritage and design legacy. This unique pattern, originally found in Lacoste’s iconic polo shirts, is reimagined here as a sculptural dial element. The contrast between the metallic outline and the colored aluminum surface creates depth and visual interest, ensuring the watch is instantly recognizable as a Lacoste creation.
• Sporty Leather Strap: The genuine leather strap combines comfort and durability, designed for everyday wear with a sleek, masculine profile. Its texture and flexibility allow for a secure, comfortable fit across various wrist sizes. The strap complements both casual outfits like jeans and polos and semi-formal attire such as blazers or button-down shirts, offering versatility across multiple settings.
• Water Resistant up to 5ATM (50 meters): Built to withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water, making it suitable for daily activities like handwashing, light swimming, or unexpected weather. This level of protection ensures peace of mind during everyday use, though it is not intended for high-pressure water exposure such as diving or snorkeling.
• 44mm Case Size: A bold, contemporary diameter that ensures strong visual impact and readability. The size is well-suited for men with larger wrists or those who prefer a more assertive, modern aesthetic. The aluminum construction with colored finish keeps the watch lightweight despite its substantial appearance, enhancing wearability throughout the day.
