in the design language. While the lugs of the earlier models are still soldered to the case in fan-shaped shapes, the latter watch has integrated lugs. A pulsometric scale is also available on the 1948 chronograph, instead of the more traditional tachymeter.

This shape, which we joke about reminds us of UFOs, isn't common today, but was typical for ladies' watches from the 1960s. Calibre 9''1003 is the movement inside. It's a very thin manual winding movement that has 17 jewels.
