40MM STEEL · BLACK CERAMIC BEZEL · CHRONOGRAPH
The Numbers Are Inside The Bezel
A printed scale wears away. This one is cut into the ceramic and filled.
Most tachymeter bezels are printed or pad-stamped onto an aluminium ring. It looks correct for a year or two, then the numerals thin out where your cuff catches them and the black turns grey in strong sun.
This ring is ceramic, fired from powder into a blank that is harder than hardened steel, then cut with diamond tooling because nothing softer will touch it. The scale is engraved into the fired surface and filled with a pale metal, and the face is lapped flat afterwards, so the numbers sit inside the material rather than on top of it.
The colour behaves the same way. Ceramic is black all the way through, so it will not fade with sunlight and a scuff exposes more of the same black instead of bright metal underneath.

PINK LACQUER DIAL · THREE COUNTERS
Pink, Held Together By Black
The counters are the reason the colour works instead of looking sweet.
Pink on its own goes soft. Put it on a chronograph and ring each of the three counters in black, and the face reorganises itself — the eye lands on the counters first, reads the pink as the ground they sit on, and the watch keeps the seriousness of a racing dial.
The surface is lacquer, not paint over a stamped blank. Thin coats, cured between each, so the pink is even edge to edge with no cloudiness in the corners and enough depth to change slightly as light moves across it.
The rest is deliberately quiet. Applied baton markers in polished steel surrounds, filled with lume, a single pink chronograph hand sweeping from the centre, and no date window anywhere. Take the aperture out and the dial stays symmetrical, which is how a chronograph is meant to be read.
How This Bezel And Dial Are Made
Two slow processes, running side by side.
Powder Into A Ring
The bezel starts as ceramic powder, pressed into a ring and fired until it is harder than steel. It shrinks in the kiln, so every blank is cut to size only after it has cooled.
Cut With Diamond
The tachymeter scale is engraved into the fired ceramic with diamond tooling, because nothing softer will cut it. There is no correcting a slip — a bad ring is scrapped, not reworked.
Numerals Filled
Pale metal is deposited into the engraving and the face is lapped flat, leaving the numbers level with the surface and locked inside it.
The Dial Lacquered
Pink lacquer goes on in thin coats, cured between each, until the colour is even across the whole blank. Then the three counters are recessed and ringed in black.
Set, Fitted And Checked
Markers are applied and filled with lume, hands fitted, and the chronograph action, bezel alignment and clasp are checked by hand before the watch is boxed.

Why People Ask About This One
A lacquered dial in a colour outside the catalogue is commission work abroad — a long wait and a five-figure invoice before anything reaches your wrist. This keeps the pink lacquer, the black ceramic bezel and the 904 steel bracelet, and asks $999.

Before You Buy
Frequently Asked Questions
Does it need a battery?
Does it need a battery?
No. It is automatic, so the movement winds itself from the motion of your wrist. Wear it and it runs. Leave it off for a couple of days and it stops — a few turns of the crown, or an hour back on the wrist, starts it again.
Will the pink fade?
Will the pink fade?
The colour is in the lacquer itself, built up in cured coats, and it sits under the crystal rather than on an exposed surface. Treat it like any coloured dial and keep it out of long hours of direct sun, and it stays as it arrived.
Is the bezel painted black?
Is the bezel painted black?
No. It is a ceramic ring, black the whole way through the material, with the tachymeter scale engraved into it and filled with a pale metal. There is no coating to chip and no printing to wear off.
Does the chronograph actually run?
Does the chronograph actually run?
Yes. The two pushers start, stop and reset the counters — they are working counters, not decorative circles.
How does 40mm wear, and can the bracelet be sized?
How does 40mm wear, and can the bracelet be sized?
40mm is the middle of the range and suits most wrists, and the bracelet links come out so any jeweller can size it in a few minutes. It closes on a folding clasp.
Can I swim with it?
Can I swim with it?
No. It is rated to 30m, which covers rain and hand-washing. Keep it out of pools and the sea.
