  • the movement does not limit to an automatic chronograph movement, other types of movement including a net 49 are possible.
  • the box 23 is partially closed, that is to say it has a bottom or a single-piece bezel with the middle part.
  • the middle part could be replaced by a box kept closed by the telescope only.
  • the case could be replaced by a box kept closed by the bottom only.
