The Archimedes is a chronometer certified by COSC and the embodiment of elegance and sophistication. This magnificent timepiece has a stepped 18 K white gold case. Bracelet and clasp are also made of polished 18 K white gold, which lends this watch a touch of exclusivity. The silvered dial was replaced in 2006 because of discolouration. The Roman numerals and the hands with white luminous material exude a vintage charme without appearing too conservative. The Archimedes features a date quick set and stop seconds for accurate timesetting.
