The 45 mm diameter Quasar case is entirely made of sapphire crystal. A chimney-style glass covers the movement bridges like a telluric dome. Its all-of-a-piece baseband features curving sides and angular lugs.
Caliber GP9400-1035 is a modified version of Caliber 9400, from which the manipulate has been removed. Almost as if this had created a vacuum, the movement finds itself in an almost weightless state.
The bridges visually contribute to Quasar’s overall transparency effect. They are made of titanium, sandblasted and then blackened by a PVD treatment.
