Horological Craftsmanship & Movement Integrity
Unlike conventional street replicas that rely on noisy low-beat movements, this edition features an authentic 28,800 vibrations-per-hour (4Hz) mechanism with a silent ball-bearing bi-directional winding rotor. Hand-finished chamfered edges, laser-engraved rehaut serials, and exact dial font typography ensure indistinguishable aesthetics under magnification.
