Each instance of the limited series has a mother of pearl dial decorated with the image of the Arc de Triomphe. Instead of hour indexes are inserted diamonds, except the figure 6, where the brand’s logo is set. Straps on which are written the names of 12 streets, which originate from the Arch, supplement the watches from the Arc de Triomphe collection.
The new items are equipped with the vintage basic mechanisms of French production. Each instance has its own serial number, which is engraved on the case back.
