This is a very special chronograph that dates to the 1940s, to many the golden era of steel chronos. Housed in a Francois Borgel-style waterproof and anti-magnetic case with decagonal caseback and faceted lugs.
This watch has a full-blown vintage look thanks to the radium-induced patina on the dial, almost like crème brulee.
The hour and minute hands have radium lume and the chrono hands are all blued steel, with snake/dagger esque hands on the minutes and hours chronograph register, so cool !
This is a very special and highly collectible chrono we find. The watch is fitted with the pictured leather strap and the calibre M95 movement has been fully serviced by our watchmaker.
We love vintage watches like this and would love to share our passion with you on a call or visit to our lounge. Please get in touch!
