Case, caliber and bracelet
A self-winding manufacture 4130 caliber, it deploys a column-wheel chronograph and offers approximately 72 hours of power reserve. The 40 mm Oyster case combines Oystersteel and 18-carat yellow gold, guarantees water resistance to 100 m and protects the movement under a sapphire crystal, while the crown and pushers screw down to secure the whole. The fixed yellow gold bezel features a tachometric scale that measures average speeds of up to 400 kilometers per hour. The three-counter black dial provides a clear reading of elapsed time, and the diamond-set hour-markers enhance its presence on the wrist. The yellow Rolesor Oyster bracelet closes with an Oysterlock buckle and incorporates an Easylink extension to optimize everyday comfort.
