- Silver-Tone Stainless Steel Case: Crafted from durable stainless steel, the 37mm case offers a compact yet substantial presence on the wrist. Its silver-tone finish resists wear and maintains its appearance over time, making it suitable for daily use.
- Black Rubber Band: The integrated black rubber strap delivers comfort and flexibility, ideal for active wear or extended use. Its sporty yet elegant design complements the watch’s overall aesthetic while ensuring a secure fit.
