The look �� three hands, three circles of digit tracks, and a date window at 6 o'clock �� emphasizes precision, readability and functionality. Find pricing and wallpaper inside. Victorinox says the AirBoss is a classic example of second-glance timepiece design. The first glance tells you “pilot-inspired look”.

Do any only you increase the sleeve on the watch arm?

winding backwards
Hi - i read on another forum that you should not wind your watch backwards to set the time. I did this on both my Black Bays when British Summertime ended. They don't even have a date wheel - so is this a problem??ThanksGlenn
