Only 2715 pieces of this luxurious chronograph were produced between 1992 and 1999.
This sportive yet elegant timepiece sits in a large and solid steel/18 K gold case. The sapphire crystal protects a stylish, high-quality blue dial with applied luminous gold indexes and subsidiary dials that have been decorated with a fine, engine-turned pattern: small second at 9 o’clock, 30-minute counter at 3 and 12-hour counter at 6 o’clock. Inside, the legendary El Primero automatic calibre 400 operates at 36,000 beats per hour.
