This example of the 5206-6021 is in excellent condition and has a new old stock crystal. The crown is big and grippy for a satisfying hand winding experience, if required. Typically the cal.5206 is wound by changing the date - yes advancing the date also winds the watch. However this model has the crown for either and does not require the crow to be in second position to wind. Additionally model number 6021 has some aesthetic similarities with the venerable K52-monocase. Yet, it could be argued that this LM Special has a cleaner, less cluttered dial. Besides that, the 5206 shares many features with the up market chronometer grade 5246; same high beat rate, hacking, hand winding, instant day and date change at midnight, all at much less cost to the collector. The 52xx series movements from Daini are incredibly compact, installed in equally compact cases making them wear quite small. Further, this crystal is 28mm as opposed to the more common 30mm of that era. This is an excellent watch for someone who whats classic proportion(small), closer to that of the 50s, yet having the robustness and technicality of a more modern automatic watch. The LM Specials are also a great unisex watch.
