Stepping up in Swarovski's range
From the Passage Chrono collection, this Swiss-made quartz watch pairs a 36mm rose gold PVD stainless steel case with a burgundy sunray dial carrying a trio of chronograph sub-dials. The bezel is set with 100 clear pavé crystals, and the Swan logo sits at twelve o'clock among the indices. At 7mm thick, the case wears close to the wrist. The burgundy Italian calfskin strap has a crocodile pattern and measures 17mm at the lug, fastening with a rose gold PVD pin buckle. A quick-release mechanism allows the strap to be changed without tools.

Learn more about Swarovski
Daniel Swarovski patented a machine for cutting crystal precisely and in volume, and in 1895 moved production to Wattens in the Tyrol for the hydroelectric power the valley could supply. The company has been there ever since, still family-controlled after five generations.
The watches are not a licence. Swarovski makes them itself, and they exist to display the thing the company actually produces: cut crystal, set into cases, bezels, bracelets and dials in quantities no watchmaker would attempt.
That makes them jewellery with a movement inside rather than watches with decoration added, and they are best judged on that basis. Quartz movements, generous stone-setting, and designs that change with the season.
Swarovski also supplies crystal to fashion, film and stage — which is why the same stones turn up on a Wattens-made watch and on a costume at the Metropolitan Opera.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
Showering yes, swimming no. 50m covers splashes and brief immersion, but a swimming stroke generates well above the pressure that figure describes.
Water resistance explainedWill the glass scratch?
It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.
Sapphire, mineral and acrylic comparedDoes 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 comparedIs it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as women's, though at 39mm it sits in the range that suits anyone.
