Much like its original sibling, the case of the white dial Speedster is crafted from stainless steel with a brushed and polished finish, measuring 42mm in diameter by 13.2mm thick, with 20mm lugs and an overall lug-to-lug profile of 47.5mm. With a nickname of “sapphire sandwich” a pair of sapphire crystals are fitted to both the dial side of the watch and its screw-on case back. Of course this shows the incredible movement within.
