The hands are designed with metal edges and are polished with extremely high gloss and a strong three-dimensional feel. The luminous-filled hands are still clearly visible in dark light environments and are extremely practical.
Fonts and scale

The steel belt model looks mature and stable, while the belt model looks more youthful and energetic. V7 Factory has also put a lot of effort into the design of the strap.

The automatic rotor has been modified with lettering and polished with fish scale patterns, and has excellent texture. Although this watch has a dense bottom design and the movement cannot be directly seen, the V7 factory still spares no effort in polishing the movement to ensure the stability and accuracy of the watch.
