The standout feature is its date window positioned at 6 o’clock, adding symmetry and balance to the dial while enhancing everyday practicality.
Powered by a reliable Swiss automatic movement, the watch delivers smooth, self-winding performance while retaining the charm and feel of classic 1960s–1970s design. Its case size wears beautifully on the wrist, giving it a modern presence without losing vintage elegance.
