THE MOVEMENT
The high-quality movement is a Swiss Made column-wheel chronograph movement, partially skeletonized. Controlled by two pushers (start/stop and reset), the seconds are counted by the central chronograph hand and the minutes are clocked by the right-hand subdial.
THE CASE
The 47mm rose gold case features anti-reflective sapphire crystal, a ceramic bezel and rubber pushers. Water resistant to 200 meters, the case also has a screw-down crown and an inner rotating bezel, controlled by the push-down crown at 10 o’clock.
THE DIAL
The Epic X Chrono Messi has a bi-compax layout, with the right subdial for the chronograph minutes and the left subdial for the running seconds. The dial itself is blued mineral crystal, allowing a glimpse into the column-wheel chronograph movement below.
