The black dial houses fan-shaped sub-dials at the 4 o'clock and 10 o'clock positions with yellow retrograde hands. A single press of the fly-back pusher instantly resets the chronograph to display the current time in the current lap without the need to stop and reset, and when the chronograph isn’t in use, the upper sub-dial doubles as a second time zone indicator. The 43mm case is crafted of stainless steel with a brushed finish, and we’ve paired it with a brown eco-friendly natural leather strap equipped with quick-release spring bars.

Mineral Crystal
A toughened glass made from silica that's heat- and scratch-resistant, offering clear visibility and solid everyday durability.
Mineral Glass
Enhanced durability
Mineral crystals use a similar material to windowpane glass and were developed for watches as a harder alternative to acrylic. Mineral crystals are still susceptible to scratches but less so than acrylic, however it is not possible to buff out these scratches as it is with acrylic. Mineral glass is not as shatter resistant as acrylic but does offer greater transparency and clarity. Due to their improved scratch resistance versus acrylic, and improved shatter resistance versus sapphire, mineral is often considered to be the best of both worlds as a crystal material.

Q&A
When I set the time on this watch by pushing in the crown, the second hand won’t start ticking until I rotate the crown a bit after already pushing it in. Is that normal?
Hello Delilah! Thank you for reaching out with your observation. On the Waterbury Ace Fly‑Back Chronograph 43mm Leather Strap Watch, it is normal for the second hand to begin ticking only after the crown is fully pushed in and slightly rotated — this ensures the movement engages properly. Rest assured, this does not indicate a defect; it’s simply how the mechanism is designed to start once the crown is secured. We appreciate your attention to detail and hope this helps you enjoy your watch with confidence.
