Description |
With roots tracing back to 1446, Gallet is the world’s oldest watch and clock making house. Consequently, the list of technical innovations and horological achievements the company has brought to watchmaking is as vast and diverse as is its history. From the first wristwatch with a center-originating sweep second hand for heart rate calculations (1912) and the first wristwatch with a rotating bezel (1939) to the first miniature chronograph wristwatch for women assigned to technical and scientific tasks during World War II (1939) and the first 24-hour reading wrist chronograph (1947) - and this is barely scratching the surface. Today, The Gallet Watch Company is one of the few remaining truly independent Swiss watch brands that have kept their in-house manufacturing facilities.
It is a brand universally adored by professionals, enthusiasts and civilians alike. According to information kindly provided by the company, the watch on offer here dates back to the late 1930’s/mid 1940’s. It was designed as a sophisticated pocket chronograph as well as a doctor’s desk or laboratory table stopwatch – one can’t help but ponder the lifestyle of the person this watch was designed for. All the unknowns surrounding it, therefore, only add to its mysterious allure. The dial is unbranded in accordance with Gallet’s bespoke tradition of providing its watches with either no branding or with the name of the buyer, retailer or brand that would distribute them. The example on offer here is in extremely good condition, especially given its circumstances. Professionally serviced in 06.2020 and ticking perfectly. This Gallet Chronograph is in very honest and original condition - it even has the original glass on and would make a great addition to any Gallet themed collection. To speak reservedly, it is a truly remarkable, once-in-a-lifetime find. Covered by a limited warranty of 1 year, starting on the date of purchase. |
