The DC98 is the new generation of an elegant chronograph with sporty features and a coveted central stop minute. The dial shines in an elegant sunburst finish so do the polished hour indices and all the hands. The rotating bezel is polished and beaded on some surfaces and shines in competiton with the satin-finished outer surfaces of the ice-hardened stainless steel case. The crown and pushers are perfectly beaded and polished. A total work of art in elegance and reliable mechanics with the manufactory movement.
