On the front side of the case and screwed back cover is set a fine sapphire crystal, which allows us to consider the depth of the mechanism. Central dauphine hands in 18-carat white gold carry out indication of hours and minutes. One side of the hands is polished to a shine, and the second - with a rough surface. As a result, the hands take on a different look in the reflection of light. The inner ring of the dial, made of 18 -carat white gold, is fitted with hour markers and the company`s logo - a Maltese cross at the 12 o`clock position.

The indicators of months (at the 12 o`clock position), date (at the 3 o`clock position), day of the week (at the 9 o`clock position), and the moon phase (at the 6 o`clock position) are located on the dial. The wonderful golden moon looks against the background of the blue sky, made of lapis lazuli.
The caliber of the Patrimony Traditionnelle Skeleton Perpetual Calendar watch is skeletonized and engraved in the Art Nouveau style.
