Hi, Michael. No, it is an A12023 Navitimer "Cosmonaute", an 18 jewel Lemania 1877 ( 24hr geared 1873) hand wound movement showcased by its sapphire crystal caseback. Here is the other side of the coin for you.... :-)
Best,

Good old Prick-90. I think we used it until the '90's.

Ahh, so the watch (or the newer one for that matter), doesn't work as an emergency transmitter by itself, rather it needs that transceiver that comes with it?

That's a beautiful Navitimer, and definitely has a place in life...

Problem is, that most of the plane-crash survivors up here, often escape with only what's on their body...LOTS of water up here too, so you can't always count on the installed ELT to be above surface!

I rather like mine...
