There has been a lot of discussion today regarding the new Bo1 Chronomat and a lot of references to "the square thing on the dial". These things have appeared before, I believe on the Cockpit.

Could someone please tell me what that piece or design is actually called.

Thanks

It's just a design element that reflect/plays with light and provides more detail. Who knows, maybe it makes counterfeiting a bit more difficult as well.

Thanks, I guess it would make it a lot more difficult to fake it.

Don't know what it's called, but it looks to me very good the way it ties in with the subdials. I didn't like that square on the cockpit when I saw the pics at first, but after seeing it I really find it attractive.
This new Chronomat really does need to be seen!
Cheers,
Carl
