The Monarque, the current flagship of Milléchron, is a top-tier luxury diving watch, powered by the Vaucher double barrel automatic calibre 3002, encased in solid hand-finished 904L stainless steel, with a fumée dial inspired by vintage diving watches of the 1960s, accompanied with full Vaucher CLA Chronometry certification.

The choice of 904L stainless steel, the highest grade of stainless steel used in watchmaking, for the case of the Monarque, reflects Milléchron's relentless pursuit of excellence. 904L is eight times greater in material cost than the more common 316L, and requires its own bespoke set of moulds which must be replaced more often, but is far more resistant to tarnish and polishes to a higher brightness than its lesser sibling. It is also far more laborious and requires greater skill to hand-finish, especially with the Monarque's three intricate polished lines. As an example of our conscientious attention to detail, even the crown and proprietary deployant clasp are in 904L stainless steel, where lesser brands would not have bothered.
