- Case and Dial Design
- The watch features a two-body, 18K white gold case with a square profile. Its exterior surfaces demonstrate both polished and brushed finishes. A significant decorative element of the case design is the application of round diamonds; 24 are set into the bezel, while two further diamonds are positioned on the shoulders of the case where it connects to the bracelet. The dial is rendered in a matte silver finish, providing a neutral backdrop for the applied white gold round indexes. Time is indicated by white gold dauphine hands, which match the material of the case and indexes. The overall presentation maintains a consistent material aesthetic through the integration of the matching 18K white gold mesh bracelet.
