Lot Essay

When observing this attractive 1940s wristwatch, one will immediately notice the attractive two-toned silvered dial. Set against it are three circular scales: An outer blue tachymeter scale, inner blue tachymeter scale and red telemeter scale. Here, the two blue tachymeter scales can measure from 12 kilometers per hour and as high as 700 kilometers per hour. More immediately, the spiral scales offer a spectacular aesthetic, heightened because the printing is preserved in remarkable original condition since its production in 1941.

Beyond the attractive dial, when one examines the case they will notice its sharp and full-proportioned sides and lugs, hardly worn, this watch is preserved in outstanding condition.
