◈ The Meridian Collection
Steel and black. The standard that never fades.
-
◆Deep black dial — the most enduring dial colour in dress watchmaking. Black reads with authority in every light, pairs with every outfit, and never dates. The Onyx is the Meridian you reach for first and wear most.
-
◆Silver indices and hands — polished silver markers and hands against the black dial create a clean, high-contrast readability that is second to none. The dial is as functional as it is elegant.
-
◆Globe complication at 12 o'clock — the world map sub-dial in silver against the black dial. A detail that adds depth and narrative without distracting from the watch's fundamental clarity.
-
◆Brushed stainless steel case — the definitive case material for a dress-sport chronograph. Brushed finishing reduces glare and gives the case a quiet, assured presence.
-
◆Chronograph complication — three sub-dials measuring elapsed hours, minutes and seconds. A fully functional stopwatch integrated into the most timeless dial in the collection.
-
◆Black crocodile-embossed leather strap — black on black. Case, strap and dial unified in a single monochromatic statement, broken only by the silver detail of the indices and buckle.
-
◆Quartz movement — absolute accuracy and zero maintenance. The chronograph functions with the reliability quartz delivers in every condition.
-
◆Hardened mineral crystal — highly resistant to scratches and impacts, preserving the clarity of the black dial over years of wear.
-
◆3 ATM water resistance — protected against light rain and everyday splashes.

◈ Common questions
Everything you need to know.
How does the chronograph function work?
The chronograph is a stopwatch function built into the watch. The pushers on the side of the case start, stop and reset the elapsed time counters on the sub-dials. The Meridian Chronograph Onyx measures elapsed hours, minutes and seconds independently from the main timekeeping function.
Is it automatic or quartz?
The Meridian Chronograph Onyx uses a quartz movement — delivering absolute accuracy with zero maintenance required beyond a battery replacement every 1 to 3 years depending on usage.
What is the globe complication on the dial?
The globe sub-dial at 12 o'clock features a world map motif in silver against the black dial. The contrast makes it clearly visible without dominating the dial — a detail that rewards attention without demanding it.
Why steel and black — is it really that versatile?
Steel case with a black dial and black leather strap is the single most versatile watch configuration in existence. It works under a shirt cuff at a business meeting, on a dinner table, at the weekend. It does not clash with any outfit or occasion. The Meridian Chronograph Onyx is the watch you never have to think about — it simply works, every time.
Is the leather strap genuine leather?
Yes. The strap is genuine leather with a crocodile-embossed texture in deep black. Genuine leather develops character and softens with wear, conforming to the wrist over time. Avoid prolonged exposure to water and condition periodically with a leather care product to maintain its appearance.
What is the water resistance?
The Meridian Chronograph Onyx is water resistant to 3 ATM (30 metres). It is protected against light rain and everyday splashes. It is not designed for swimming, showering, or submersion. Leather straps should be kept away from water wherever possible to preserve their condition.
Does it come with a warranty?
Yes. Every Aldric Voss timepiece comes with a 12-month movement warranty covering manufacturing defects, plus a 30-day return window. If anything is wrong, we repair, replace or refund — no unnecessary delays.
How do I care for the Meridian Chronograph Onyx?
Wipe the case with a soft dry cloth after wear. Keep the leather strap away from water and direct sunlight, and condition periodically to maintain suppleness. Store in its original box away from direct light and heat when not wearing. The quartz battery will need replacing every 1–3 years — have this done by a qualified watchmaker to ensure the case seal is properly maintained.
