Lot Essay

A highly attractive chronograph, the present wristwatch stands out through its extremely attractive and original dial with Arabic numerals and scales. In original overall condition and showing no signs of cosmetic interventions, the timepiece is placed in the top league of desirable chronographs and combines part of the most attractive attributes for a vintage chronograph, such as a stainless steel case considered large for the period, a single button chronograph with olive shaped button, as well as a dial of the most prized colour, black.
