I discovered a precious and wonderful 3940 in Geneva in May (at the auction preview venue).

One of them is the 3940J (brown dial & leaf hands). The other one is the first-generation 3940G. Sorry the photos are poor.

I owned this one!

3940 Question/Concern

Hey all! I recently read a great article on Watch Brothers London about the differences between the series of 3940. This got me looking at my own 3940G which I've had a few years. According to the article all 3rd series watches have the sigma markers in l
