Sadly no - it's actually quite rare to find the automatics (ie; with seconds and/or date) with the sandwich dial - it's pretty much exclusively for the 'Base' models which are all manual.

This is my 176 with the sandwich dial - it shows up pretty clearly in this shot. Just as a tease, the second shot is of the display back...

Thats a shame, I really like that sandwich dial feature :(

On the otherhand thats a sweet watch and a very nicely decorated movement!!! Howcome a base model has the sandwich dial and a display back but the more expensive 104 does not :?

Sportback,

Have you checked out the Bell and Ross models ? You would love them, some are even as PLAIN and UGLY as that monstrosity you posted the picture of here.

acceldebt have you seen them in person? You might change your mind, I certinely have!

Fully agree on the Bell and Ross though :?


Any way, THE EAGLE HAS LANDED! I just put the 6.75 on and now have the sudden urge to rhyme obsene lyrics. Probably will pass, same thing happened when I got my Nikon D50, I was shocked people were not stricking poses as I walked by...
