Perrelet, a Swiss watchmaker with nearly 250 years of history, has launched the Turbine Chrono Neo—a modern update to its well-known Turbine Chrono. This new version comes in three color options, blue, green or gray. It features a smaller 42mm titanium case, which is lighter and more comfortable than the original 47mm version. The use of modern materials and updated design makes the watch more wearable for everyday use.
One of the biggest changes is how the chronograph works. Instead of relying on small sub-dials, the Chrono Neo uses a central minute hand with a glowing triangular tip for easier and faster reading of elapsed time. The dial includes Perrelet’s signature 12-blade turbine, which spins with wrist movement to reveal the colorful lower dial—available in electric blue, grass green, or light grey. Matching color details also highlight the chronograph functions for better visibility.
The case is made from grade 2 titanium and features a brushed and polished finish. The crown and pushers are coated in black DLC for durability and a sleek look. The watch comes with a five-row titanium bracelet and an extra rubber strap that can be swapped easily without tools, thanks to a new quick-release system.
Inside, the watch is powered by the automatic P-361 calibre, which includes 175 components and a 42-hour power reserve. It also has shock protection and a clear caseback to show off the detailed finishing, including Geneva stripes and a skeletonized rotor. With its mix of modern styling, solid build, and everyday practicality, the Turbine Chrono Neo is a strong addition to Perrelet’s lineup.
