I'm guessing it moves the internal compass ring?!? eccles said:
Paid my ransom to the customs man today and picked up this lovely Le Jour automatic chrono today.... far cheaper than a Pasadena, and slightly rarer because it's not PVD . Just got to try and source a new crystal for it now.
I have a mint '82 Pasadena - in steel. Crap iPhone pic...

I paid just over 4 figures for it.

Is it Lemania powered or 7750?
Easiest way to tell is the top subdial - it's a 30 minute counter on a 7750, but a constant 24hr indicator on the Lemania; the Lemanias minute counter is from the centre spindle, when set to zero, the minute and second chrono hands are superimposed so it can be hard to tell sometimes whether there is one or two hands there.Gassing Station | Watches | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
