A deep white dial is perfectly readable, despite so many indicators. This is possible thanks to an extraordinary design which includes four sub-dials, harmoniously arranged around central hands. While timekeeping and date hands come in rose gold, chronograph hands are presented in blued steel to make an important distinction.
