Design

- The watch is housed in an 18k pink gold case measuring 45 mm in diameter. It is designed as a water-resistant manual wind timepiece. The aesthetics feature distinct gold bridges securing the mechanical components within the dial aperture, visible through the crystal. The dial displays the signature of the maker and includes two brushed pink gold bridges. The overall design emphasizes the mechanical complexity of the movement, which remains visible from the front of the watch.
