Sachs expressed this idea through a specially finished mineral crystal that resembles the condensation on an ice-cold glass. In its normal state, the frosted surface partially conceals the dial. Breathing on the crystal or wiping it with a wet finger temporarily makes it transparent, revealing the white dial and its handwritten-style numerals before the frosted effect gradually returns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 12.0pt;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 12.0pt;\"\u003eThe deliberately informal numerals, blue-tone hands and red-outlined date window create a playful contrast with the functional brushed-steel case.
