Architectural 41mm case made of 18-carat white gold: Crafted in a complex modular cushion shape that merges elements of tonneau, round, and ribbed patterns. The multi-layered construction combines high-polished and satin surfaces in noble white gold.

Using laser engravings and invisible UV inks, security features are incorporated, including historical texts about the manufacture's history and micro writings that are only visible under UV light. Innovatively mounted date ring: The date is not displayed through a classic dial window but by a darkened disc rotating beneath the sapphire glass dial, highlighting the current date on an outer numeral ring. Sculptural hands and applied indices: Finely crafted hands made of 18-carat white gold and geometric structure indices ensure precise and stylish readability despite the complex dial architecture. Manufacture automatic caliber 2460 QH (COSC certified & Geneva Seal): The heart of the watch is a highly complex manufacture movement that carries both the official COSC chronometer certificate and the coveted Poinçon de Genève (Geneva Seal).

Scratch-resistant, anti-reflective sapphire glass: Protects the multi-layered dial artwork from external influences.
