THE POWER RESERVE INDICATORS
The two tips depict crossed swords for the maximum power reserve
and a surrender position for zero power reserve. The two crossed
swords show that the clock is fully wound, and as it winds down they
gradually move apart one to the right and the other to the left, before
ending up in the surrender position after 40 days.
