The CIGA Design EVEREST SUMMIT features a 45mm Grade-5 titanium case with alternating brushed and polished finishes and crisp bezel tolerances. Its dial is crafted from processed Everest bedrock, showcasing a raised relief filled with Super-LumiNova C1, complemented by ice-axe-shaped hands also treated with Super-LumiNova.
