Description

Men's watch with a decidedly vintage aesthetic, presented in a red velvet box. This model features a round white dial, adorned with green and red stick indexes, and a distinctive "Rugby 99" logo in color, clearly legible at 3 o'clock. The bezel has a silver finish with minute markings (05, 10, 15, etc.) and a red colored area between 12 o'clock and 3 o'clock, highlighting the watch's sporty style.

The case has a matte metallic appearance, with a notched crown at 3 o'clock and two additional pushers, suggesting the presence of a chronograph function. The visible bracelet is an expandable type, with wide horizontal links, in a silver finish matching the case. The watch also features a date window at 4 o'clock, with a white background, and has three secondary counters on the dial, typical of multifunction watches.

The stick-shaped hands are partially luminescent, making it easier to read the time in low light conditions. The dial glass appears domed and transparent. The set is presented in its original box, the interior entirely covered with red velvet, which highlights the retro style and the rarity of the model.

The visible inscriptions "SB 15" and "Rugby 99" confirm the special edition dedicated to the Rugby 1999 event. The general condition shows a slight patina on the bezel and bracelet, testifying to the age of the piece, but no major chips, deep scratches or structural defects are visible on this face.

This men's watch, with its retro look, stands out for its 1990s-inspired design, with colorful and sporty graphic codes, typical of limited editions from that period. The set attracts with its collector's look and meticulous presentation.
