Ducati Leggenda DTWGI0003602 Watch
The Ducati Leggenda DTWGI0003602 is a men's sports watch presented as a steel chronograph for everyday use: tachymetric bezel, black dial with yellow details and an aesthetic clearly inspired by the circuit. It is the proposal of the Leggenda collection by Ducati, the line that transfers the language of the track to the wrist. Ducati, founded in Bologna in 1926, has built its identity on competition, and this collection carries that code to a steel watch worn every day. This watch inspired by motorcycles rests on a concrete idea: the sporting gesture, resolved in a chronograph with a speed measurement tool.
The functions of this quartz watch are chronograph and calendar (date). The two pushers flank the crown at 3 to start, stop and reset the chronograph. The steel case measures 42 mm and combines polished and brushed finishes. The dial is black, with grid texture, three sub-dials at 12, 9 and 6, the red Ducati shield at 3 and yellow details on the sub-dials, on the central chrono hand and on the date frame. The bezel is tachymetric, black with white scale. The bracelet is stainless steel, with polished central links, and the clasp is deployment with push button. The crystal is mineral and water resistance is 5 ATM. The movement is the VD57 quartz calibre, with chronograph, date, hour, minute and second functions.
The tachymetric bezel is the feature that defines this Leggenda. It turns with the thumb and serves to calculate an average speed over a known distance: the scale is aligned with the seconds hand and the result is read. That gesture, of measuring a speed with the watch, is what translates the circuit function into everyday life, and the contrast with a conventional chronograph is that here the bezel is not decorative: it has a usable scale. The yellow details on the black dial add a second feature: the central chrono hand, the accents of the sub-dials and the date frame are read with contrast on the dark background, and the red shield at 3 maintains the reference to Ducati.
Chronograph 42 mm Black Dial Tachymetric Bezel
Why choose this watch?
Tachymetric bezel and VD57 quartz chronograph
The tachymetric bezel is not decorative: it turns with the thumb and serves to calculate an average speed over a known distance. The VD57 calibre adds a chronograph with three sub-dials and date. It is the combination of a measurement tool with a quartz chronograph.
Black dial with grid texture and yellow details
The black dial has a grid texture that changes with light. The yellow details on the sub-dials, on the central chrono hand and on the date frame mark the contrast on the dark background. The red Ducati shield at 3 completes the reference to the brand.
42 mm case, steel bracelet and deployment clasp with push button
The 42 mm case keeps the ensemble in a contained format. The steel bracelet alternates brushed and polished links, and the deployment clasp with push button is released with the thumb, without tools. Those looking for a closed-dial watch without a calculation function should look at another model.
Frequently asked questions
How is the tachymetric bezel of the DTWGI0003602 used?
The tachymetric bezel serves to calculate an average speed. The chronograph is started when passing a reference point and stopped on reaching the next one, over a known distance (for example, one kilometre). The chrono seconds hand points to the tachymetric scale on the bezel, which indicates the average speed in the corresponding unit. It is a tool inherited from competition, designed to measure speed, not to time short intervals.
Is it automatic or does it need a battery?
It is quartz: it runs on a battery and does not require winding. The VD57 calibre is a Japanese quartz movement with chronograph and date functions. To preserve water resistance, battery replacement should be carried out by a workshop.
Is it suitable for swimming or showering?
No. Water resistance is 5 ATM, which covers splashes, rain and hand washing, but it is not designed for swimming or showering. For real aquatic use, a watch with 10 ATM or more is needed.
