(to resist scratches) and strong anti-magnetic properties
(16,000 A/m, much stronger than the second model).
On this sportier model, the markers, the hour and
minute hands are coated with LumiBrite. The watch
also has 200 meters of water resistance and a screw-
down crown for enhanced security. It was slated to be
available in April 2020 as a limited edition of 2,000
($3,900).
The dressier of the new quartz models differs in its
base accuracy tuning. In this model that adjustment is to a
level of accuracy of ±5 seconds a year, a level of precision
marked by the five-pointed star at the six o’clock position.
The more contemporary case design features a thin bezel
and a curved case side to reflect more light. The seconds
hand is red. The watch is available as a limited edition of
2,500 ($3,800).
