The "Sakura Wakaba" dial has a light green color and a crosshatched texture pressed into it with a handcrafted mold, representing the visual of white cherry blossoms and fresh green leaves.

Dial components, including the hands and indices, are executed in a case-matching tone but are not solid gold, as indicated by the absence of a special star signature.
