Mondaine Stop2Go Watch Review: A Timeless Classic with a Unique Twist

Introduction

Welcome to our latest blog post, where we'll be exploring a truly unique watch that combines Swiss precision with a touch of whimsy—the Mondaine Stop2Go Watch. In this review, we'll dive into the fascinating features of this timepiece and uncover what sets it apart from the rest.

Background

Swiss Railway Clock

Before we dive into the watch itself, let's talk about the history behind it. The Mondaine Stop2Go is inspired by the iconic Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) clocks, designed by Hans Hilfiker in 1944. Known for their minimalistic design and precision, these clocks are a symbol of Swiss punctuality and efficiency.

Watch Design & Features

Mondain Stop2Go

The Mondaine Stop2Go Watch features a clean, easy-to-read face with bold hour and minute markers, and a bright red second hand. The 41mm stainless steel case gives it a sturdy and durable feel, while the genuine leather strap ensures comfort on your wrist.

But what truly sets this watch apart is its unique "Stop2Go" movement. The red second hand takes 58 seconds to complete a full rotation, then pauses for 2 seconds at the 12 o'clock position. Simultaneously, the minute hand jumps to the next minute marker, replicating the exact movement of the Swiss railway clocks. This distinct feature not only pays tribute to the original clocks but also adds an interesting conversation starter to your wrist.

Functionality & Accuracy

Under the hood, the Mondaine Stop2Go is powered by a Swiss-made quartz movement, ensuring precise timekeeping. The watch also features a date function at the 3 o'clock position, giving you all the essential information you need.

But how accurate is it, you ask? Well, the watch's movement is specifically designed to maintain its accuracy despite the two-second pause. The unique Stop2Go mechanism adjusts for the pause, ensuring that you'll always be on time.

Durability & Water Resistance

You might be wondering if this watch can withstand the test of time. The Mondaine Stop2Go is built to last, with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal protecting the dial. Additionally, it's water-resistant up to 30 meters, so you don't have to worry about getting caught in the rain or splashing water while washing your hands.

Conclusion

So, is the Mondaine Stop2Go Watch worth your investment? We think it's a great conversation starter with a unique twist that sets it apart from other timepieces. It's a stylish watch that pays homage to the iconic Swiss railway clocks while providing accurate timekeeping and durability.

If you're looking for a timepiece that's both functional and has an interesting backstory, then the Mondaine Stop2Go is definitely worth considering.

DISCOUNTS FOR MULTI STRAP PURCHASES APPLIED AT CHECK AUTOMATICALLYAll Military style Straps are not built the same. Our Premium Military style straps are some of the highest quality straps available on the market as a result of upgraded materials and build quality.We use a denser nylon weave which means the 1.4mm thick fabric is stronger and has a silkier finish for added comfort and as well as luxurious lucent like finish. As well as upgrading the fabric we use a 600D nylon thread for stitching which is stronger and less prone to snags and the buckles are secured with double stitching unlike cheaper alternatives.Finally we have upgraded the hardware: We use a brushed 316L Marine grade stainless steel in a brushed finish for low reflection. The keepers are milled from one piece of steel and the buckles are 3.24mm thick as opposed to the standard 2.6mm on Military style classics which again means additional strength and added durability.Changing your watch strap brings many benefits: Whether you are looking for an aesthetic refresh for your favourite watch, or you want to complement your wardrobe with a fresh colour or style. There’s no doubting the added bonus of bringing new comfort and resilience to your watch by upgrading to one of our Premium Military style watch straps.If you are putting your tool, dive or aviator watch under extreme conditions there’s additional peace of mind from wearing a Premium Military style strap in case of a spring bar failure.If you are considering the upgrade from a Military style Classic the differences are clear: The Premium Military style Strap is thicker, more durable and softer to wear and the lucent like sheen is complementary to any fine watch. With a length of 285mm the Premium Military style will fit any wrist from 6-9 inches Available in 18mm, 20mm and 22mm when stock is available Comes with our no nonsense delight and perfect fit promise- 30 days no hassle returns.
