This TAG Heuer watch sports a black dial construction with an eye-pleasing sunray effect, along with two sub dials. Offering the watch’s secondary function is a running seconds hand located at the 6 o’clock position. Again located at the third and ninth hour respectively are the watch’s hour and minute functions. Situated near the seconds hand is a prominently displayed date window. Gracing the dial are finely polished hour and minute hands with a luminescent fill for easy reading at night, and handcrafted Arabic numerals. While the watch’s dial is protected with a scratch resistant sapphire crystal, the caseback sports a smoked sapphire construction.

The strap in black alligator leather sports a folding clasp mechanism with push piece safety. Adding an individualistic appeal and uniqueness is the red tip design on the watch’s seconds hand. A tachymeter scale also forms part of its construction.
