Dials can be had in galvanized grey or green, with sunray decoration and varnished in black with dégradé effect. SuperLuminova rhodium-plated hands and markers. As a first step in creating the dégradé effect, the G.O. dial manufactory in Pforzheim uses rotating brass brushes to apply asunray finish. After the dials are galvanized, green or grey lacquer is applied in several passes. In a final step, black lacquer is carefully applied at varying angles using a hand-held spray gun, which results in individual color flows unique to each watch. The lacquer-coated dials are then fired in a kiln to burn in the color.

It comes on a 26mm steel bracelet, or a brown/grey calf nubuck leather with a steel folding clasp.
