This variant in ORIENT's Perpetual Calendar line is exceedingly rare! The Perpetual Calendars often seen have round cases & curved calendars. This particular model with the polygon case & square grid calendar is difficult to come across! So far, we've only gotten ahold of 2 of these models in our 12 years in business!
