RIDER-TAB BEZEL
The bezel of your watch is fitted with 4 hour-markers called rider-tabs: they are
used as points of reference to mark the time of departure or a limit time one
wishes to remember. On models with no chronograph functions, they also serve as
“minute chronograph” enabling one to measure time elapsed in minutes.
Rider-tabs make it easier to rotate the bezel by giving a better grip (especially
when wearing gloves) and additionally protect the glass.
