The battery would be more expensive than the watch!,(and rightly so!)

It has a screw down crown,and a rotating screw case back! ooooohhh!
and the redundant pushers are just pure class!
Also if your plane crashes you can pull the crown out and send an sos signal for a 250 mile radius(unless you go down in water, much less range!)

I assume the pushers are nonfunctional, but how do you tell?

You're right , we should ask the MOD's to move this thread to the " Watch Tech " section . Expert opinion needed on that one

Hold on a sec, Haven't I seen a watch like that before, the chrono pushers should be connected to a very thin piece of wire, pull the wire out and you can garotte any enemy :-) could be the next 007 accessory :-)

I now declare this post to be of sufficient length.

Yeah, you know when I drink alone, I prefer to be by myself.

Now, every morning, just before breakfast,
I don't want no coffee or tea.
Just me and my good buddy Weiser.
That's all I ever need.

Cause I drink alone, yeah, with nobody else.

I think you got a fake there, the serial number on the case back and the serial number on the capacitor don't match .
