Astonia Crimson Carbon
The Astonia Crimson Carbon is a 42 mm chronograph in black steel with a carbon fibre bezel marked in red, made in 225 pieces. A carbon fibre bezel is a layered composite rather than metal, so its weave shows through the surface. It runs the Swiss Ronda 5030.D quartz chronograph, with a 12-hour and a 30-minute counter, small seconds and a date, and is rated to 10 bar.

Collector photographs
Taken by people who own this reference: their light, their wear, their patina. Not the maker’s photography. Where the maker hasn’t given us a photograph, one of these is shown as the main image above, always credited. A few are the Atlas’s own, and say so.
If this watch is in your collection, yours would be the first. A photograph on the wrist shows what a studio image cannot: scale, wear, and how the piece has actually aged.
How to get one
The maker's page for this exact reference, the same page this catalogue's specifications are sourced from. It was a limited edition of 225, so the page may no longer offer it for sale.
Rotoris publishes its current collection and its retailer or service network on its own site. Start there for what is actually in production; this catalogue records references whether or not they are still sold.
Check the model name, case material and any edition number against the maker's own page before buying anywhere else. No reference number is recorded for this watch, so those are the details that identify it.
