The DuoIndikator, however, strips that classically three-register setup down to a dual-register layout, with the minutes totalizer and hours totalizer at 12 and 6, respectively. But rather than leave the running seconds indicator off entirely, at 8 o’clock there’s a small aperture with a rotating disc underneath to indicate the seconds. Over the course of a minute, the aperture fills in red, and at exactly 60 seconds a white vertical line appears to show the start of a new minute. It’s a neat way to keep that oh-so-desirable dial symmetry without tossing the functionality of a running seconds.
The stainless steel case measures 42.66 millimeters wide, 49.7 millimeters lug-to-lug, 15.6 millimeters thick, and 22 millimeters at the lugs. The case can be had in a polished or bead-blasted finish. The pilot bezel is bi-directional, the crown screws down and is sealed with double O-rings, and the case is pressure resistant up to 20 bar. A domed sapphire crystal with an internal anti-reflective coating protects the dial, and sapphire around back offers a view of the nicely decorated caliber within. All 7750 movements are regulated to 5 positions by Guinand.

The dial is anthracite sunburst with large silver registers. Applied indices are present at each hour with a mix of bars (at 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, and 11) and dots (3, 6, 9 and doubled at 12). Framing the dial is a white tachymeter scale, and there’s a bit of red at the seconds indicator and the chronograph hands.
The DuoIndikator is available on a number of different straps, among them a vintage style veg-tanned band, a stitched strap with pull-up leather, and a shark leather strap. The latter of the three isn’t really my cup of tea, but the other two are spot on for the watch. There are a couple of customization options available, among them the choice of band, the choice of clasp, and an English day wheel. Some come with a surcharge, but they’re relatively reasonable everything considered.
For orders outside of the EU, the starting price is Euro 1,681.27, which is roughly $1918.33 USD. Overall, it’s a great price for a solid watch from a trusted German brand. Having handled a few Guinands myself in recent years, I can vouch that the brand makes an excellent product worthy of consideration. Guinand
