This heavy bracelet chronometer is made of solid 18 K yellow gold. It was launched in 1977 in two versions: a tonneau-shaped model with round dial and day/date display, and a rectangular model with a curved, rectangular dial and date, like this timepiece. Both examples have gold-plated dials, baton indexes and tritium dots.
