The result is a completely transparent chronograph with sapphire tool, unique in the world. This feat was awarded by the prestigious "Prix Officiel-de-la Revue des Montres". The mechanism of Quinting consists of the sapphire disks, mobile and stationary; the distance between them is 0.08 to 0.1 millimeters.
