Ollech & Wajs Computer
The
O&W Computer is a true 24 hour watch with a bezel for a second time
zone and a simplified version of an aviation E6-B style slide rule.
The slide rule is operated by the crown at 4 o'clock. The crown at 2
o'clock sets and winds the watch. The watch is all stainless steel
and the bezel looks is base metal.
The
movement is a Fontainemelon FHF caliber 72, also used by Mr Wajs
on the famous Early Bird. It is a 17 jewel unadjusted manual wind
quality movement.
The
dial is a true 24 hour dial with a 24 hour bezel with an E6-B
style slide rule.

The crystal is standard plastic. As expected from any dial with a
slide-rule, it is fairly busy, but not too bad. The dial has the
12:00 hour (noon) at the top. It also has the upper half white and
the lower half black to indicate day and night time. The bezel is
bi-directional and you can use to set a second time zone.
The case is all stainless steel. Its diameter is about 39 mm
and measures 49 mm from lug to lug. It is very comfortable to
wear.The back presents a surprise
because it has a globe etched with meridian lines which adds a nice
touch to the watch.
