18k red gold. This model is a statement of watchmaking mastery and exclusive style.
Design and Aesthetics
The watch case, with an imposing diameter of
46 mm, is made entirely of fine, polished and satin-brushed
18k red gold. This choice of material gives the watch a warm, luxurious appeal and substantial intrinsic value.
The dial is presented in an elegant, cream or silver tone with a sunburst finish and features contrasting
black chronograph sub-dials (at 3, 6, and 9 o'clock), creating an attractive "panda look". The red gold bezel is equipped with the famous
circular slide rule, a functional instrument for important flight calculations that emphasizes the authenticity of the pilot's watch. The hands and indices are also in gold and coated with luminous material (
Super-LumiNova®) to ensure optimal readability.
