This is a nice clean all original wartime chronograph from the respected Swiss house of Britix. Britix collaborated with Breitling and Wakmann during the war years to fill the demand for high quality chrono's for pilots, navigators, gunnery officers and the like. This one is clean and straight and running great. 34mm X 45mm three piece chromed case with stainless snap back shows light and careful use with no serious scratches or loss of chrome. Back and bezel snap on crisply. 18mm between the lugs.
Silvered dial with black numerals surrounded by black minutes track, red telemetre and black tachymeter, both in miles. Two sunken sub dials, constant seconds and 30 min. elapsed time.
Inside is a bright clean 17 Jewel Swiss Landeron 248 movement running strong and keeping good time. All chronograph functions work properly and hands snap back to zero smartly.
