This very beautiful 15 017 not only is an automatic watch with a waterproof case but also this reference is important by the implementation of the Quick-Set feature, meaning you can adjust the date once the crown is in position 2. The jewel count had been upped to 27 from 26 due to the use of the new caliber 3035. The size of the case and lug width all stay the same. The crisp yellow-gold case together with the thunderbird bezel are two features that make this watch even more desirable also considering its really great conditions. Completing everything, there is the silver dial with applied baton numerals and luminous accents and hands.
