The cream dial is divided into two parts: on the right side of the dial is placed the flashed image of a ship made of 22 -carat pink gold. On the left side of the dial is located an additional window with Roman numerals and browned hands. In the center of the dial is placed the second’s hand. A double anti-reflective domed sapphire crystal protects the dial.

A sapphire crystal, installed on the back cover, provides to observe the work of the Swiss manufacturing automatic movement Arnold & Son A & S6103 with ceramic ball bearings, 30 jewels with a diameter of 30.4 mm and a thickness of 7.79 mm, a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour, 50 -hour power reserve, and functions of hours, minutes and seconds. The second’s function is implemented with the "true-beat seconds” complication - hence the abbreviation “TB” in the model name. The complication is this: the second’s hand does not move smoothly visually, i.e. with a frequency of 6-8 movements per second and jumps - a leap second. It stands in place most of the time and, only when the second is almost gone, "jumps".

This complication has been very relevant in the 18-19 centuries, when it was used in marine chronometers, which allowed more accurately determine longitude.
The caliber is decorated with "Cote de Genève" ornament, with polished edges of bridges, blued screws, and skeletonized rotor.
The TB Victory watch is available on a leather strap in black or brown color with a clasp in 18- carat pink gold.
The novelty is released in a limited edition to 28 items.
