I've seen a Portuguese Ratty before. Supposedly very rare though... I think it's supposed to have a clear caseback and of course the third pusher on the 10-11 position. A rattrapante function is supposed to have essentially two timing mechanisms to time two separate events. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_chronograph Also called a rattrapante, double chronograph and split chronograph. |

I believe the word Rattrapante is French & means to catch time or something like that. Additionally, the Portuguese Rattrapante is from the the mid - 1990's. As far as the case back, I don't think it was clear it was a traditional metal. Cheers, Enezdez |
