Object description

Case and Dial Design

The timepiece is constructed within a steel case defined by a bombé profile, measuring 29 x 33 mm. The dial is finished in black and incorporates a transparent window designed to expose elements of the internal mechanism. Time is indicated through applied brilliant markers located at the quarter positions and baton-style hands, with a central hand dedicated to seconds.

The overall composition is unified by an integrated armis-type mesh bracelet, which allows for length adjustments via a flap closure offering two height settings. A plexiglass crystal covers the dial, providing a transparent interface between the user and the watch face.
