Circa 1950.
Featured here is a vintage Helbros Chronograph watch in a chrome plated case and stainless steel snap back with a black dial and two registers at the 3 and 9 positions. The watch sets and winds smoothly and is powered by a Swiss made 17 jewel manual hand winding Helbros caliber 243 movement that runs strong and kept good time over a 24 hour period. The dial showcases a 30 minute chronograph, tachymeter scale, and telemeter scale as well. The chronograph is fully functional with start, stop, and reset all working properly via the square pushers. The dial and chrome plated bezel have areas of flaking and the case has light scratches and pitting in some areas. This is 70+ year old watch which has survived the test of time and still works like a charm! Case measurements are approximately 35mm wide (excluding the crown) x 42mm from lug end to lug end. *NS
