The present watch features a rare Bloodstone dial with a natural dark green pattern and red spots. The dial also has a pinball alignment gem setting, which is a high-risk process due to the fragility of the thinly sliced plate. The use of precious stones on these dials makes them even more distinctive and collectible.
