CHRONO MODERN “LE MANS” LUCKY NUMBER
MDM.330.LMS.ST.45.WE
Famous race cars always carry legendary numbers – lucky numbers. And because everyone has their own individual lucky number, our Pit Stop watches let you choose your own number to be displayed on the watch dial. Any number from 1 to 99 is possible, and it will ensure that your watch is as unique and individual as the special moment you associate with your number.

The dial can be customized with a two-digit "Lucky Number". There is no limit to your imagination, what you want to remind yourself and others with the Lucky Number. screw-down pushers
Screw-down pushers confer an additional mechanical aspect to watches. In order to operate the stopwatch function, one has to first unscrew the collar and, then, close it again after stopping it. See-through caseback
Our display back case uses a blue anti-reflective sapphire crystal and thus allow for an unobstructed view of the pulsating calibre. One has the feeling that the soul of the mechanical automatic movement can both be felt and seen. The watch is alive. Together with the possibility of the custom labelled rotor, each watch becomes a truly personal gift – even to oneself. ETA 7750 Movement
After the takeover by ETA, the Valjoux 7750 was re-named the calibre ETA 7750. This is quite possibly the most successful automatic chronograph movement of all time. The calibre stands out due to its high degree of accuracy and robustness. It has 25 stones, a ball bearing mounted rotor and a uni-directional winding mechanism. The 7750 has a 1/8-second counter, a 30-minute counter, a 12-hour counter, 28,800 half oscillations per minute and has a power reserve of ca. 44 hours. The loss of accuracy is 1-6 seconds per day. Movement revisions are recommended every 3 to 8 yearsTOP Execution

Stainless Steel
Not all steels are created equal. We use 316L stainless steel; one of the hardest premium steels in the world. In addition to its hardness and resistance, this high-quality steel stands out because of its finish as well as it very fine silver hue. 316L steel has a significantly lower nickel emission than, for instance, 904L steel, which is also a high-strength steel alloy. This is, for us, a reason to favour 316L stainless steel. 1

Racing
The adventurers of the race tracks and roads on asphalt, salt or sand have always searched for us, not us for them. This is because we have racing watches with "Lucky Numbers". No matter whether you once had a successful race number or your great idol did, whether you want to document your cylinder number or victories - you can eternalize it on the dial. And if that ever changes, we change our racing watches with it. Racing, after all.
24 hours Le Mans
Everyone nowadays has 24 hours of Le Mans. This year we had 72 hours of Le Mans. The next generation of Dreifuss was at the circuit and experienced the atmosphere with all their senses. Massimo, Leonard and Masha absorbed the smells, sounds and images of the race for three twenty-four-hour sessions. After all, they are the ones who will essentially shape Pit Stop watches in the future. What a Pit Stop watch by Maurice de Mauriac must look like cannot be learned from books or films. Nor can you learn it only from the stories of your father. For that, you have to become part of the circuit, let yourself fall into the scenery, the people and the choreography of this special race. At some point, between the uniformity of the laps and the excitement of each metre, the tradition and the technical revolution, there comes a point when you feel the spirit of the race. Then and only then can you make Pit Stop watches that have all in them. Les Mans has now become part of the whole Dreifuss family. The spirit lives on and will find a new home in the next Pit Stop watch.
Lucky Number 13
One of my Maurice de Mauriac timepieces inspired one of the most surprising birthday gifts I ever had. A couple of friends noticed my Chrono Modern Pit Stop Le Mans customized with my lucky number ’13’ (also the date of my birthday) and combined to create a couple of bespoke items that really blew me away — André Sampaio, a friend who started a company called Watch Garage, chose a specific watch roll and a travel pouch for bracelets; then Francisco Bernardo provided the artwork inspired by the tricolor racing stripes and the ’13’ badge. Then a third friend joined in for the pictures: Pedro Santos.
The result came out great. And the pictures with the Chrono Modern Pit Stop Le Mans prove that. It truly was a special gift given by three special friends. Now I guess we will all — I, the three of them and the Mauriacs! — have to go to Le Mans with the watch, the roll and the pouch for even better pictures and a family photo!

Welcome to the toughest race on the planet: Dakar Rally 🏜️🏁 - and we are part of it @oasis_rally_team
It is not a race in the conventional sense. It is a trial that does not reward speed, but attitude. Precision. For us, this rally is a return to a feeling that runs deeper than motorsport. It is the sense of time as a companion, not an opponent. In the Dakar Classic, time is not chased — it is read. Stages are not won; they are passed. Every second matters because it tells whether human, machine, and moment were in harmony.
Sladi is back behind the wheel at the Dakar Classic. His Lada Niva has been refined with everything learned from the last Dakar, and there it stood — first vehicle on the grid, still in the dark, restless, tires clawing at the ground.
We are proud to be part of this years Dakar with the @oasis_rally_team 🏜️🏁

Mastering Holiday Season Style with the L3 Small Seconds✨1x watch - 6 colors - 1000 ways to wear.
A watch that is launched directly with six colours does not expect you to match the watch. It wants to match: black, white and cherry blossom as well as spherical blue, spherical green and spherical burgundy (a first in our colour palette) make the L3 Small Seconds look like six different watches. Complemented by a brushed stainless steel case or a DLC-coated stainless steel case for a darker look, their elegance is very attractive to many. Combined with a leather or Milanese strap, even crossover with a Nato strap, almost anyone can get the watch that suits them perfectly.

Time is Love ❤️👀
At Christmas, time slows down. It becomes warmer. More attentive. More human.
Our father lived with passion. When he loved something, he stayed loyal to it. What mattered to him was never a logo or a label, but the feeling behind it. Colour. Energy. Consistency. Love, lived every day.
There is a small heart that has accompanied our family for many years. For us, it became a quiet symbol. A reminder to follow your heart, to stay compassionate, to think clearly, to live with colour and to remain open to the world.
Christmas reminds us of exactly that. Loyalty. Presence. The courage to care.
Time is not measured in minutes these days. It is measured in shared moments, familiar gestures and the people we choose to love.
Time is Love.
