Across the sources

The 38.5mm rose gold case is inspired by the Calatrava reference 96, featuring slim, polished lugs, curved flanks, and a narrow bezel.

The sand-beige sunburst dial offers a softer character than previous silver or blue versions, with its tone shifting from champagne-like indoors to richer golden hues in direct sunlight.

Calendar indications include twin day and month apertures at 12 o'clock, and the date in a window integrated into the subdial at 6 o'clock, which also houses the 24-hour indicator and moon phase display.

The self-winding calibre 26-330 S QA LU 24H movement features a stop-seconds mechanism, an updated winding system, and a 21k gold central rotor.
