had an older stainless steel Cosmograph (I'm not sure of the model  number 
any more) that was a "manual wind" but with screw down pushbuttons that I  
foolishlly traded in on my newer Cosmograph, gold and stainless. It was an  
"impulse" sort of purchase, sort of prompted by my wife who had heard me  
complain 
that I had wanted a stainless and gold one, and that the older  stainless 
Cosmograph had been giving me a lot of trouble requiring almost annual  service 
at 
Rolex. She also added that I would wear the newer stainless and gold  watch in 
more business situations (she was commenting on the fact that I didn't  wear 
my other Oyster Date Just (model # = ?) or my gold "President" very much  and 
that they just sat in the safe "wasting away". I should have kept the older  
Cosmograph and just bought the newer one, but the manager at the jewelry store  
made an offer for the trade and after I insisted she double it (I think I 
still  undervalued the older watch) the evil deed was done.  

In any event, I do wear the newer one regularly, with the Citizen Skyhawk,  
as [reviously noted, pretty much a farm watch.
