While attention tends to be focused on the parts with a strong visual impact, such as the bezel and case back, the details of the dial are also packed with attention to detail that is unique to limited edition models. The second hand with the "Paris 2024" emblem stands out against the wave patterned ceramic dial. As with the previous model, 18K moonshine gold is used for this. Furthermore, the calendar disc at 6 o'clock also uses the "Paris 2024" number font, firmly producing the collaboration specifications down to the smallest detail.

③"Paris 2024" original NATO strap
