The models have round cases with a diameter of 41 mm. Cases are equipped by bezels with a tachymeter scale. The watch water resistant - 100 meters. On the dials are located Arabic numerals and hour markers, as well as the central hands, the hour and minute of which are coated with luminescent substance. Chronograph pointers are located in the lower part of the dial. An anti-reflective sapphire crystal protects the dial. It should be noted that the pointers are unusual in shape - in the form of two rotating digital discs. With the rapid double-clicking on the crown, all three hands stop at the 12 o’clock positions. To control the chronograph function is carried out by using the lateral buttons. Testimonies of the discs, counting down a few hundredths of a second, are added to the testimony of the hands. Hence, the name of the watch - 1/100th.
