It is based on the popular Pontos S watch of 2012, only with a few aesthetic tweaks and technical enhancements brought about by a collaboration with luxury sports car designer Henrik Fisker.

HANDS The hands have been diamond cut, faceted, and applied with luminescent coating (beside sec. hand). The second and minute hands have matching colors with the inner rotating timing bezel and its elapsed time-scale and controller crown system.
The watch is powered by an ML112 based Valjoux 7750 caliber. Personalized with rhodium-plating and with a guarantee of quality and precision, the self-winding caliber is with: 25 jewels, 28,800 vibrations per hour, 4 Hz and a power reserve of 46 hours. It has been adjusted to 3 positions after fully winding and after 24 hours.
