I didn't know you could have a rattrapante movement off a Venus 170. What do you make of what looks like a spring around the post for the hands? http://www.ebay.com/itm/321408725299?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT |

Modified 170, Dubey & Schaldebrand did something similar. This isn't strictly a vintage piece, one of the Schneider reissues of the early 90s, can't comment on the spring because on my phone I can't see it. |

yes, similar to the Dubey Index-Mobile, but first time I see that mod on a Venus 170. interesting & nice. |

Never seen such a system on a vintage ! Is it a Breitling SA improvement or used before on V170 ? |
