Every moment is carefully metered out by the 7663Q caliber housed in the rounded stainless steel case with a diameter of 40 mm in a smooth finish. The see-through sapphire case-back provides an insight into the intricate inner workings of the timepiece comprising of 244 components and 34 jewels that are all protected by 30m water resistance. This captivating watch is held to the wrist with a black alligator strap lined with alzavel, which is fastened by a deployment clasp.
