The case on the Longines Mens Replica Master Collection Retrograde is very smooth but the lugs and crown are liable to scratch your wrist when you put the watch on.Inside the case is Caliber L698.2 which has retrograde displays for the date, the day of the week, the time in a second time zone and the continually running seconds hand at 6 o’clock.
Close scrutiny of the movement reveals some unexpected attributes. The first surprise comes when you extract the crown to its middle position to set the time: the hand on the seconds display continues to run, but the hands on the three other retrograde displays abandon their previous positions and move clockwise into a sort of waiting position. A Teflon-coated guide ring ensures that the racks fall onto the cams and thus disengage simultaneously. There is no return-to-zero mechanism for the seconds hand.
The swiss best replica threaded button at 10 o’clock repositions the retrograde display for the time in a second time zone. The time in a second zone can be set so that it’s independent of, and uninfluenced by, the ordinary hour hand. If you wish, you can set this display to show the time in a city outside your home zone or you can use this display to keep track of the time back home while you’re on the road.
