Depending on the angle from which the watch is viewed, the inner circle of the dial appears either lighter or darker, creating a subtle and captivating change in appearance. The dial is beautifully complemented by elegant blued sword hands and a combination of Arabic numerals and fine baton indices. It is housed in a petite 16mm solid 18ct rose gold case, featuring gracefully extended curved lugs that enhance the watch's delicate proportions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe standout feature of this exceptional timepiece is its large winding crown, which is positioned on the case back rather than the side.
