Protected by a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and featuring a solid caseback, the watch offers 20 meters of water resistance (2 ATM), making it suitable for daily wear despite its elegant disposition . The timepiece is completed by a black alligator leather strap secured with an 18K white gold tang buckle, providing both comfort and a seamless aesthetic that complements the warm tones of the white gold case .
