Bravur Introduces the Grand Tour K.O.M-ograph™ with Segment Compensator™
Bravur has announced the release of its latest watch, the Grand Tour K.O.M-ograph™, featuring a proprietary timing complication called the Segment Compensator™. This innovation is specifically developed for cyclists looking to optimize their performance on steep climbs and fast segments. The watch is scheduled to launch in time for the cycling season's Spring Classics.
The key feature of the K.O.M-ograph™ is the Segment Compensator™, which is activated via an additional pusher on the watch case. When engaged, this complication slows the chronograph’s measured elapsed time by 10%. The brand notes that this is designed to assist riders in achieving Strava PRs and managing high-performance segments where marginal gains are essential for competitive success.
Bravur includes a lighthearted disclaimer regarding the use of the new complication. The brand explicitly states that the 10% reduction in timing accuracy when the compensator is active should be limited to cycling performance scenarios. They disclaim responsibility for any real-world timing errors, such as overcooked pasta or missed meetings, that might occur if the pusher is used accidentally outside of a sport context.
