This distinctive personality, offering a modern take on the style of the 1950s, is picked up on the Fiftysix self-winding. Its movement visible through the transparent sapphire crystal caseback is equipped with a stop-seconds device enabling extremely accurate time-setting. In terms of the exterior, the baton-type hands and white gold hour-markers coated with Super-LumiNova® make a perfect match with the 40 mm-diameter stainless steel case. One distinctive final detail that is sure to delight connoisseurs is the box-type crystal topping the bezel and preserving the intrinsically retro-contemporary style of the Fiftysix collection.
