Notes

Property of The Original Asian Watch Collector

This model went through an unusually tough testing. Prior to delivery, each watch was extensively checked for 1,000 hours, and this means that it has to undergo checks that are sharper than those laid down in the chronometer certification guidelines and requirements. The label “1000 Hours Control” and the engraving on caseback confirmed that they have successfully passed all tests for accuracy, resistance to temperature and barometric pressure changes, vibrations and magnetic fields as well as water resistance.
