The 36.5mm x 11.6mm platinum case size, with the box sapphire crystal measuring 9.9mm, harkens back to vintage chronograph dimensions.
The in-house Caliber 234 movement operates at a vintage-inspired 18,000 vph.
Finishing on the movement includes Côtes de Genève, hand-polished chamfers, soleil and perlage on the mainplate, black-polished steel parts, circular-grained wheels and balance, and snailed barrel and ratchet wheel.
The design language draws from the brand's earlier 1967 Dead-beat Seconds and ref. 2941 Split-Seconds chronograph models, featuring gold appliqués that match the hands.
The chronograph lever features a hook/whip/devil's tail-shaped end, reminiscent of vintage Minerva chronographs.
The dial is a semi-transparent stainless steel and sapphire construction, with solid gold applied indices.
The black alligator strap measures 18mm at the lug width and tapers to 14mm.
