Introduction model overview

This model is equipped with a split-second (rattrapante) chronograph, released in 2018. By adopting a swing pinion-type horizontal clutch and keeping the thickness of the movement itself to 6.8mm, it has solved the problem of eccentricity of the split-seconds pivot, a problem that split-seconds-equipped watches often suffer from. This aesthetically pleasing movement is a must-see.
