Thanks guys!

I really like the unique dial (is that a cream jubilee dial with arabic numerals)?

![]() I know of fluted, coin-edge, engine-turned, bark, smooth and inset-type bezels. There are probably more, but that is the extent of my recollection. Chime in, folks, if you think of more! ![]() ![]() ![]()

The fluted ones are made of 18k gold and the engine turned are SS if I am not mistaken.

Thanks prince!
![]() Is ' domed ' - the same as smooth bezel? IMO fluted or the engine turned defines DJ-DD. Mike ![]() Last edited by mlb; 16 April 2007 at 08:02 AM.. Reason: - |

When setting the time, is it ok to wind the crown backwords? Like if it is a few minutes ahead, Can I just go back a few minutes or do I have to go all the way around?
