It features a round case measuring 39 mm in diameter, crafted from polished stainless steel for a striking finish. It is fitted with a mineral crystal over the central elements, operated via two pushers and a grey crown positioned on the right side. The crown features a knurled finish for a secure grip. This men's watch is secured by a screwed and engraved case back ensuring water resistance of 5 ATM.

The Dial

This dial adds a refined touch to the watch. Meticulously crafted, it features a central checkered pattern over which three hands indicate the time with precision. In a silver tone, they include a slim seconds hand with a red tip tracking the chronograph seconds, along with a long and a short hand marking the minutes and hours - readable in the dark thanks to their luminescent treatment. They sweep along a track evoking a racing circuit. On this track, a railroad minute track displays red Arabic numerals in increments of 5, making it easy to read the minutes. For the hours, silver indices are set around the dial, complemented by an aperture at 6 o'clock serving as a date window. Below, the country of manufacture is indicated, while above, the movement type is displayed alongside a car motif echoing the racing theme of this creation. For added functionality, two sub-dials are positioned at 3 and 9 o'clock, indicating 24-hour display and 60-minute counter respectively. Finally, the brand places its name beneath 12 o'clock as its signature.

The Movement

This watch is powered by a precise meca-quartz movement. This hybrid caliber is specifically the Seiko VK64. Vibration-resistant, it uses quartz technology to drive the main hands and the date window, while the mechanical module handles the chronograph function. It is powered by a battery offering approximately 3 years of autonomy.

The Strap

This blue strap adds an elegant touch. Crafted from bovine leather, it offers undeniable durability and flexibility. Perforated and lightly grained, it is elevated by tone-on-tone stitching for a refined finish. It will enhance your look and pair effortlessly with any accessories on any occasion. It also features an ardillon buckle for a custom fit. Lug width: 18 mm.

Water Resistance

With water resistance of 50 meters - or 5 ATM in watchmaking terms - this timepiece can handle the occasional splash, but shouldn't be exposed to water for extended periods. You can wear it in the shower from time to time, but to preserve the mechanism's quality and precision, our watch specialists strongly recommend keeping it away from baths, pools, and the sea. No swimming or diving, and no prolonged contact or immersion.
