Case and Dial Construction

The watch is housed in an open face case manufactured from 18ct rose gold. The case measures 46 millimetres in diameter. The exterior back is plain, with light surface marks visible. The crown and bow are located at the top of the case.

The dial is white and features printed black minute markers arranged around the outer edge. The hour markers consist of a mix of applied Arabic numerals and linear baton indices. Centrally mounted are gilt pencil-style hands, with a secondary dial dedicated to seconds located at the 6 o'clock position. The dial is signed with the maker's name and 'Genève' below the 12 o'clock position.
