I had never considered getting one until I saw it a a local dealer. All I can say is that it is exquisitely finished and enjoyable to wear.

I love the caseback crown, do you know if it's easy to wind?

It's always taken a back seat to its big brother the Logical One. Shame because the movement is quite pretty.

Unlike nwk00, I actually find it harder to wind that a normal crown. For my large stubby fingers, I have to essentially use my nails in the detents on the crown. Not as easy but not bad enough to make it an impediment.

I love the Logical One! Perhaps, someday...

Hold the watch steady so it doesn't move when you press and slide the crown. It should glide easily. And because the crown is huge, you have a lot of leverage and speed. www.flickr.com
