Monocounter dial at 6 o'clock records minutes around outer circle. The first 30 minutes are indicated via red minute markers. The second 30 minutes are indicated via an inner track of blue minute markers. Hours and half-hours are read off another concentric inner circle (up to 12 hours). Half-hour diamond markers are used to determine which track should be read off on the outer circle for the minutes. If the blue-lacquered brass hand is situated above the diamond marker, the inner blue minutes are read off via the red-lacquered brass hand. Chronograph incorporates flyback feature. Chrono is activated by pusher at 2 o'clock and reset/flyback at 4 o'clock.
