Prides of the finest goldsmith manufacture, testified by the impressive chisel works that fill the sides of the two cases with low reliefs, the two watches are re-proposed with new stylistic features and declined in aged bronze and one more time in 925 silver.

Under the sapphire crystal a new dial, even more in harmony with the rest of the cases, lasered with indexes and numbers in relief, respectively in silver and bronze, replaces the two-level one of the previous models.

The 45 mm case, in the two noble metals, saves the same features of the previous editions with, in the Florentine version, the two symbolic monuments finely reproduced, Ponte Vecchio bridge extended in length over one entire side and the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore on the opposite.
