	The notable feature is the slim case and thin lugs as ~~apposed~~ to the flat top lugs of the first model. They are still waterproof with steel screw back cases as per other Antarctic and Aquamatic models of the time. These seem to be marketed at the Europeans with 25 Rubis instead of Jewels on the dial. Croton were still the main marketing arm for the North American market and the Croton name does not appear on the III.
