I already had two Rodania's in my collection when this one came up. It is a rare piece that features a month and day complication, a second sub-dial and a date hand. Perhaps the only thing lacking is a moon phase complication. :)

The watch has a day, date and month features that makes this watch a "triple date".

Side view showing the crown and two buttons that make it appear like a chronograph. The buttons at the 2 o'clock and 4 o'clock positions are for the month (upper button) and day (lower button) settings. There is no quickset for the day

Wrist shot the first time I wore the watch, which was after I changed leather straps (also for the first time for this watch).

The watch is supposed to be an automatic but that was not working as declared by the seller (maybe that's one reason it was cheap?). I am not yet sure if I will be keeping this watch. There's a likelihood I will be unloading it this December.
