Edox Delfin Chronograph Rose PVD: dolphin or goldfish?

The Edox Delfin Chronograph Rose PVD is a new model in the Delfin Chronograph collection. Like all the Delfin models it features a 316L steel case but now with a pink PVD coating. The 43mm watch has quite ta glamourous appearance. A steel Delfin can be compared to a dolphin, this shiny pink gold PVD version looks more like a goldfish. But people love goldfish, so no problem. The strong look of the case stems directly from the design language of the 60’s so it strikes the right retro note. From a design standpoint you could argue that the Delfin shares the same design codes as the Nautilus, Royal Oak, Ingenieur or Overseas for instance. The Delfin looks like its famous siblings but at a fraction of their prices. The Delfin Chronograph Rose PVD costs approximately 850 Euro. A price of less than a thousand euro for a Swiss Made watch with a legit heritage, how’s that possible? Partly because of the movement. Inside the Delfin beats the Edox caliber 101, a quartz movement based on the Ronda 5021.D which is a very reliable Swiss movement. The watch not only features a chronograph but also a tachymeter so you can measure speed – quite a challenge while swimming with the dolphins. Like most divers and water sports watches, the Delfin comes with a rubber strap.
