It is fitted with an integrated stainless steel bracelet, which the source describes as retaining a total of 22 links with minimal stretch. The design incorporates an exhibition case back that provides a view of the internal mechanical movement.

The watch retains its original Patek-signed crown.

- Dial and Complications
- The dial is finished in a grey tone with a characteristic striped pattern. It incorporates two primary subdials: a date display positioned at 12 o'clock and a sub-seconds register located at 6 o'clock. Luminous plots are applied at each hour marker, which correspond to the primary hour and minute hands. Functionality includes a flyback chronograph and a Travel Time feature. The latter utilizes two separate hour hands to display two different time zones, indicated by 'LOCAL' and 'HOME' displays on the dial surface.
