The Stratos Grey dial, which is very specific to this Limited Edition model is accented with flashes of red on the chronograph seconds hand and around the inner scale, adding a subtle yet sporty touch to the classic layout of three recessed sub-dials and a neatly positioned date window between 4 and 5 o’clock. Two well-proportioned pushers flank the crown, operating the start, stop, and reset functions of the chronograph with precision.
