Conventional integrated center-mounted unidirectional automatic winding
Cam-controlled chronograph functions

The dial layout is the standard 7750 Valjoux layout with small seconds at 9:00, chronograph seconds by central watch hand, 30 minutes at 12:00 and 12 hours at 6:00. The date opening is at 3:00, with black numbers on a white disc. This is an original day/date layout movement.
