We humans have eyes that include the whites so you can easlity see where the person is looking....other animals do not show the whites, making it more difficult to see what they are looking at.
Do we know why some watches were given the 4 digit Ethed number while most others got the 7 Digit engraved SN? Maybe a production problem caused some to be shunted aside?
My shots of the watch are not very good...monochrome has the talent and the equipment to make a nice image...wanted to show the look of the watch, not my lack of photo skills. This message has been edited by India Whiskey Charlie on 2025-08-11...
Sorry for the multiple postings but I was not able to get the link to the GP Traveller information to display correctly. Here is one last try. The Girard-Perregaux Traveller II 4940 Watch Regards, Richard M, NYC
The GP 4940 inspired me to share its story with others. Not deep, not technical, just a bit of information. Take a look if the Traveller II is of interest to you. /~rmadison Use the entire link address including my name Regards, Richard M NYC
The Alarm is set with the lower stem winder. While the stem is pushed in against the case, turn the stem to wind the alarm function. May take as many as 30 to 40 turns. To move the Alarm hand to the desired hour, pull the stem out and turn BACKWARDS....
