Quick TakeThis isn't just a timekeeper; it's a slice of sunshine on your wrist. The warm gilt dial, dotted with thirteen brilliant diamonds, catches the light and your eye. It’s got a classic 38.5 mm size that feels just right, substantial but not showy. Underneath that golden glow beats a modern heart: the L888 automatic movement with a hefty 72-hour power reserve. It’s a reliable workhorse wrapped in a two-tone suit, ready for whatever the day, or weekend, throws at you. Effortless class with a secret techy side.

DescriptionThe timepiece presents a round case architecture constructed from stainless steel with a yellow PVD coating, measuring 38.50 mm in diameter and 8.20 mm in thickness. The lug-to-lug dimension is 45.30 mm, with an inter-lug width of 20 mm. A scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, treated with multiple layers of anti-reflective coating on its underside, protects the dial. The case back is a transparent design, also fitted with sapphire crystal, permitting observation of the internal mechanism. The total assembly weighs 119.1 grams and is certified for water resistance up to 3 bar. The bracelet is fabricated from stainless steel and yellow PVD-coated links, terminating in a triple safety folding clasp equipped with a push-piece opening mechanism.

Internally, the watch is driven by the Caliber L888, a self-winding mechanical movement. This caliber operates at a frequency of 25,200 vibrations per hour and incorporates a monocrystalline silicon balance-spring for enhanced precision and durability, providing a power reserve of approximately 72 hours. The movement facilitates the display of hours, minutes, seconds, and a date complication. The gilt dial features gilt hands and is appointed with 13 Top Wesselton VS-SI diamonds serving as hour markers, amounting to a total carat weight of 0.059.
