Fly-back calendar designation. What is meant with a retrograde time display?
Retrograde does not use a rotating pointer (clockhand), but a pointer that moves in a straight line from top to bottom or left to right. I.e. the pointer displays a linear time display instead of the circular one. Also called fly-back because of the bounce back. With this clock, the week calendar runs from Sunday - indicated by DIM (dimache) - to Saturday, indicated here by SAM (samedi). The hand jumps back at the end of Saturday - fly back - to Sunday.
