Dugena - Monza - Men - 1973

Dugena Monza – Vintage Swiss Racing Chronograph

Offered here is a striking Dugena Monza, a vintage Swiss chronograph that captures the raw, purposeful spirit of 1970s motorsport design. With its bold layout, technical dial, and unmistakable racing character, the Monza stands as one of the most expressive chronographs ever produced by Dugena.

The matte black dial is visually outstanding, featuring well-balanced chronograph registers, a tachymeter scale, and a vivid orange chronograph hand that adds both contrast and energy. The design feels functional yet dramatic, delivering excellent legibility while maintaining a strong vintage aesthetic.

Housed in a substantial steel case, the watch wears with confidence and presence, true to the era’s tool-watch philosophy. Paired with a leather strap, the Monza offers an authentic racing-chronograph experience that appeals to collectors who value character, originality, and bold design over understatement.

A highly appealing piece for enthusiasts seeking a vintage chronograph with real personality and visual impact.
