Congrats! I just got mine a little while ago, and after it gets back from
a CLA I'm going to have a lot of fun with it. :)

If you turn it in the direction it indicates (counterclockwise), a film
blind drops down. You have to use this with the Watch Data LX back, but
not the Dial Data LX. You don't have to use it with normal backs.
Have fun! It's a beautiful camera.
