An outstanding dress watch with an incredibly strong architectural influence. The main thing about the watch is gorgeous, dramatically arched case with unique “folding” crystal, which is quite difficult to photograph btw. As you can see on the picture, there is a small ‘folding’ line from 3 o’clock to 9 o’clock.
