Tachymeter
high performance chronograph
A major feature of the model is the tachymeter bezel for measuring up to 400 miles per hour or average speed. Combining high tech with sophisticated aesthetics, the black bezel is reminiscent of the 1965 model with its black Plexiglas bezel insert.
The new monobloc Cerachrom bezel, made of high-tech ceramic, offers many advantages, such as excellent corrosion and scratch resistance and insensitivity to UV rays. The highly durable bezel also features a PVD (physical vapor deposition) process that provides exceptional legibility with its graduations coated with a thin layer of platinum. The monobloc Cerachrom bezel is molded in one piece, firmly fixing the crystal to the middle case and guaranteeing water resistance.
