The Phoenix Chrono is Jacques du Manoir's take on the sports-chronograph template — a genre with obvious reference points, interpreted here with a black three-subdial layout and silver baton indices that keep the face sharp against the dark ground. The date sits at four o'clock, tucked in without disrupting the dial's symmetry. At 40mm with an integrated-style bracelet, it sits where a sports chronograph should: present on the wrist without demanding attention, and rated to 100m, which covers swimming without hesitation. The quartz movement means the chronograph is accurate and needs nothing from the wearer beyond an occasional battery change.

Learn more about Jacques du Manoir

Jacques du Manoir is a Swiss-made brand sold largely through independent jewellers in Britain and Ireland. Its watches are conventional in the best sense — legible dials, restrained cases, Swiss movements — and priced well below what "Swiss made" usually costs.

The company keeps a low public profile and publishes little about its own history, so there is not much that can be said here with confidence. What can be said is that the watches are made to the Swiss labelling standard, which sets minimum requirements for where a movement is assembled and inspected.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch

Can I swim with it?

Yes. At 100m it is rated for swimming and snorkelling, though not for diving.

Water resistance explained

Will the glass scratch?

Unlikely. Sapphire is second only to diamond in hardness and shrugs off everyday marking.

Sapphire, mineral and acrylic compared

Does it need a battery?

Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.

Quartz, automatic and solar compared

Is it a men's or women's watch?

Listed as men's, though at 40mm it sits in the range that suits anyone.
