Collectors prioritize this reference for its caliber 825 bumper-automatic movement, which utilizes a hammer-based winding system and a distinct mechanical alarm struck against a pin welded to the case back. The 37mm stainless steel case is larger than its predecessors, offering a modern profile with a screw-down back and dual signed crowns. Dial variations include silvered, black, and \"Ebony\" finishes, often featuring applied hour markers and a rotating inner alarm disc. On the secondary market, stainless steel examples typically trade between $3,500 and $7,000 depending on condition and dial rarity. A notable production variant is the \"Lapidus\" dial, characterized by a textured, geometric pattern that commands a premium over standard sunburst or matte configurations.", "score": 199}]}
