The center is bright and the color fades to a darker shade towards the periphery, creating a beautiful transition that shows different expressions depending on how the light hits it.

The combination of three-dimensional upright indexes and thick bar hands adds strength to the entire dial.
The minute markers around the outer periphery also add a light accent to the design.

The fact that these genuine parts still remain is a rare find these days, and the delicate reflections that appear depending on the angle are a unique highlight of this model.
