| Diameter :
40mm (excluding hooded lugs) Thickness : 11mm (to top of crystal) The watch has two crowns, located at the 3 and 4 oclock positions. The crown at 3 oclock (see yellow arrow at right) handles the winding of the watch in the normal position, and a rather unique way of quick setting the Date display. By pulling this crown out against spring pressure, the date will advance one number for each activation. The crown at the 4 oclock position (see white arrow at right) sets the perpetual calendar display. |
