Description
This 1950s Chronographe Suisse is an uncommmon find. The heavy rose-gold-plated case with steel screw back is essentially close to new-old-stock condition and measures 39mm, which is huge for a 1950s chronograph. The completely original black dial with rose-gold Arabic numerals and rose gilt print is pristine. The hands are all original. You have to see the presence that this watch exudes on the wrist. I like the contrast of the small round pushers on the large case as well. The original crown is very slim, adding to the fine look of this watch. The Venus 188 movement was just cleaned and is accurate. Chronographs have skyrocketed in value lately.
