CILOA Retro Square Chronograph Watch — 37mm Quartz, Integrated Bracelet, Racing Dial

The CILOA Retro Square Chronograph is a 37mm quartz cushion-square case watch with an integrated stainless steel bracelet — a 1970s motorsport chronograph-inspired design with multi-sub-dial layout, date display, brushed stainless steel throughout and 3ATM water resistance. Available in seven colour variants including red, black/gold, white, mint blue, cream, grey/orange and black/contrast registers.

Key Specifications

Variants — Seven Colour Configurations

Black/white: Black dial with white sub-dial registers and hands — the highest contrast and most formally legible motorsport combination.

Black/gold: Black dial with gold-tone case and accents — the warmest and most formally dressed of the seven. Gold accents on a square chronograph create a specific 1970s luxury character.

Silver/white: Clean silver or white dial — the most versatile for everyday wear.

Red: A bold red racing dial — the most assertive and specifically motorsport-referential colour.

Black/blue: Black dial with blue accent hands or registers — a more restrained contemporary version of the racing colour palette.

Mint/teal: A light blue-green dial — the most unusual and specifically retro of the seven. Mint or teal dials were a specific 1970s watch colour.

Cream/coloured hands: A vintage cream or off-white field with warm-toned hands — the most explicitly vintage of the seven.

Integrated Bracelet — 1970s Design Language

The integrated bracelet merges directly with the cushion-square case without separate lug pieces — the bracelet links flow from the case edges as one continuous form. This construction is specifically associated with 1970s Swiss sports and chronograph watch design, when integrated bracelets became a defining aesthetic choice. On the CILOA the brushed stainless steel bracelet reinforces the motorsport chronograph reference.

Chronograph Sub-Dials

The multi-sub-dial layout creates the visual complexity associated with professional timing instruments — running seconds, elapsed minutes and additional registers arranged on the dial field. The 37mm square case provides a compact but proportionally complete dial platform for the sub-dial arrangement.

As a quartz chronograph the accuracy and reset precision are higher than mechanical alternatives — quartz chronographs reset to zero precisely and maintain consistent accuracy.

37mm Cushion Case

At 37mm the CILOA is compact — appropriate for smaller wrists and for buyers who prefer understated proportions. The cushion-square case shape creates a larger visual footprint than a 37mm round case would produce: the square geometry extends the case to the full diagonal of the 37mm dimension, creating the wrist presence of a larger round case.

Who Is the CILOA Retro Square Chronograph For?

The CILOA is built for:

• Budget chronograph buyers who want the 1970s motorsport square-case aesthetic at the lowest available price in the range
• Black/gold or red dial buyers who want those specific colour combinations on a square chronograph
• Integrated bracelet buyers who want the 1970s bracelet design language at the most accessible price point
• Buyers who want a distinctive retro square watch under $80

How It Compares

vs. Farasute Trackmaster I — The Trackmaster I is Dandong automatic column-wheel chronograph at 39mm with sapphire bezel. The CILOA is a 37mm quartz chronograph at approximately one-fifth the price. Choose CILOA for the lowest budget entry to the retro square chronograph category; choose Trackmaster for automatic column-wheel movement.

vs. Farasute NL-007VK64 Chrono — The Farasute uses Seiko VK64 mecaquartz at 38mm with solid sapphire crystal and Italian leather. The CILOA is 37mm quartz at a significantly lower price with mineral glass coating. Choose Farasute for sapphire crystal and VK64 sweep; choose CILOA for the lowest budget retro square chronograph.

vs. CILOA Tank Retro Chronograph — The CILOA Tank is another model in the CILOA range. Check that page for the specific case shape and dial differences between the Tank and the Retro Square.
