The
Model108
movement
is a 13
ligne
self-wind
movement
featuring
the Timex
"V-Conic
® " bearing
system
,
two
plate
design
and a
fast
change
system
for
setting
the
date
. The
Model108
contains
a planetary gear
self-winding
system.
The
routine
movement
of
the
wrist
of a
normally
active person is
sufficient
to
keep the
watch
running
without
manual
winding.
The
basic
movement
is
similar
to
the
Timex
Model104.
The
Timex
code
number
appears on the edge
of
the diai. The
code
number
shows
the
catalog number,
movement
number, and year of
manufacture
for
the
watch
(see page 1.1 of
the
Timex
Service Manual
for
explanation).
