SPECIAL CHARACTERISTICS
RIDER-TAB BEZEL
The bezel of your watch is fi tted with 4 hour-markers
called rider-tabs: they are used as points of refer-
ence to mark a start time or a limit time you wish to
remember. On models without a chronograph, they
also provide a "minute chronograph" function ena-
bling you to measure time elapsed in minutes.
Rider-tabs make it easier to rotate the bezel by giving
a better grip (especially when wearing gloves) and
additionally protect the glass.
