Chronographs remain one of the most popular horological complications, with examples both elegant and sporty abounding throughout the watch world. WatchTime New York, America’s luxury watch show, opens its doors for a fourth year at Manhattan’s Gotham Hall in just a few days, and a some of this year’s most exciting new chronographs are among the hundreds of timepieces on display from our 31 sponsoring brands.

Carl F. Bucherer Manero Flyback
The new, retro-look version of the Manero Chronograph Flyback, inspired by Carl F. Bucherer watches from the 1960s and ?70s, has a 43-mm steel case and a black dial, with silver-colored subdials at 3 o?clock and 9 o?clock (for chronograph minutes and running seconds, respectively), and punctuated by red accents in the tachymeter scale and on the central seconds hand. Inside is Carl F. Bucherer?s automatic Caliber CFB 1970, which powers all of the watch?s timekeeping operations, including its column-wheel controlled flyback chronograph function. Completing the vintage-style look is the weathered-look, golden brown perforated strap made of kudu leather and sporting a suede finish. For more on the watch, click here.
