Elysee Pilot 41 mm case, Miyota 21 jewel auto movement, great finish on the case, and dial is easy to read. Nice watch and a great buy at Long Island Watches sale see favorite vendors area for details, or the iwatch news letter in watch talk area. Nando you are going to really like it. http://www.longislandwatch.com/     Last edited on Mon Jun 26th, 2006 07:11 pm by e.avery |

Just a guess having not seen the Trias, it is more than likely the same. IW was eliminating his inventory so I went with the Trias. The box it was in was the same, looked like a silver eye glass case. |

Not sure.........to the best of my knowledge, Trias doesn't use any Miyota movemts. e.avery wrote: Just a guess having not seen the Trias, it is more than likely the same.

Ok. What I want to know is where can I get a Tree like that? It seems to be a Watch Tree. I recall it produced a Stovard Jurgenson watch just last week. It seems to be bearing "fruit" we all enjoy (i.e. watches). Is it the soil in Kentucky or what? :D:D:D |

It is the blue grass makes all the difference in the world. |

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 Last edited on Tue Jun 27th, 2006 08:12 pm by KenC |

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