Case and Dial

The watch features a 49mm stainless steel case with a pronounced, textured bezel. The dial is white with applied silver batons indicating the hours. A date window is positioned at the 4 o'clock marker. Three sub-dials are arranged on the dial to record elapsed time in minutes, hours, and seconds.

The dial includes two outer rings, one of which functions as a tachymeter. Red accents are used on the dial, including the specific "30 seconds chronograph" inscription located near the 6 o'clock position. The case back is a screw-down design, housing the internal components and featuring factory engravings.
