The dial features a guilloché pattern under a translucent green varnish, providing a nice backdrop. At the center lies the lunar meteorite, which prospective owners are presented with an exclusive choice of 8 distinct meteorite patterns, making each watch a one-of-a-kind piece.  Ensuring legibility, the faceted and skeletonised hour and minute hands are infused with luminescence, glowing in dim conditions.The one minute flying tourbillon is off-centered adding a touch of mechanical beauty.
