Question on this dial: What would have been the reason (or is the reason) for the design of this kind of dial? In other words, why the inner circle for hours and the large outer circle for minutes?

There must be some history or reason that this style came about.
Thanks! :dude:

In the military and in the "pilot" world...........the precision reading of minutes, at a glance, is more important than the hour!

Note that the design of the Seiko "military/aviator" watch that pacifichrono posted the other day has the same basic dial design.   http://timetechtalk.com/forum2/3027.html

Thanks, Ken. I have seen Trias and others with this design and I have never known what the heck it was for. :)
