BEZEL: The internal UPH ring is in fantastic condition .

DIAL & HANDS: Absolutely Mint creme and tan coloured dial , stunning colour combination

CROWN & PUSHERS: thecrown looks very clean and winds and pulls out to the time-setting position as it should. It sits tightly against the case. The two fluted pusher caps are likewise in new condition and both chrono pushers work as they should and also nice and crisply.

CRYSTAL: Large flush-fit acrylic crystal is Excellent and no deep marks and sits barely proud of the bezel

MOVEMENT: Legendary V7740 chronograph movement  Watch is keeping good time with a strong power reserve and all chronograph functions are working properly and returning to zero. This is guaranteed to be the case at the time of shipment.
