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.
