Dial and Hands
The original gradient green sunburst dial is the true highlight of this watch, presenting a beautiful shift from emerald to olive tones depending on the light. Gold-tone applied indices and dauphine hands add warmth and elevate the sophisticated 1970s aesthetic. The lume on hands and indices has gracefully aged to a subtle patina, amplifying the watch’s vintage charm. The crisp day-date display at three o’clock completes this elegant and functional layout.
Case and Crystal
The 37 mm stainless steel case retains its defined lines and factory brushing, showing only minor signs of gentle wear. The rare facet-cut crystal is a standout feature, its angular edges scattering light and enhancing the dial’s brilliance. The case maintains a robust and attractive profile, with no major dings or scratches visible.

Timegrapher readings show a daily rate of +27 to +35 seconds, confirming the movement’s healthy operation.
