As promised (in Martijn, see the comments of the post of general practitioner below), I announce by this some images of a watch which I bought a few months ago, of a similar Dutch collector. It is a stop watch of Titus Geneva of the Forties (ca.1946-1948) with a movement of handwound of Landeron 48. It is a watch of 38mm, which was completely large during these days, in a red case of gold 18ct. The case is very light and has a boxing ring of metal `inside, to make with the thin 18kt the red gold lock up a little solid. I was known as that these watches were completely to populair for ex-soldiers of the USA of WWII to bring to the house, because they was one of some allowed gold watches so that they import. I am not sure, but I think that there was a certain kind of restrictions for the importation of the gold articles. Gauge 48 (31mm) of Landeron is produced between 1937 and 1970, made tic TAC with 18000 beats per hour, have 17 jewels and a reservation of 44 hours power. Another mark of this era which produced the completely similar watches was Swiss Chronographe. This mark was brought again to the life just recently.
At all events, I bought this watch because I was eager to test a red gold watch (stop watch). I always estimate that I am a young person of (and fade) to use gold watches little too much, but this one is really recreation to be carried with a shirt or a costume nice. Those standard of watches can be bought for relatively little money, I think I paid between euro 250 and 300 for this example (news belt including Dispensary Italy Bros).
During my research of on stop watches of the years 40/d the Fifties, I found this site French interesting about the stop watches. Take care to visit if you are interested by these beauties of vintage as well.
I took three photographs to satisfy the hope of Martijn I which I could capture his beauty of modest of in these images. It is the really pleasant IRL, an good image was difficult to take the black dial of aged of with the impression of gold with all these reflexions in the plastic crystal.
The watch has a small inequality in one of the hooks. As I wrote in top, the material is completely thin and this inequality was probably caused while being knocked in something or it was released on one of the hooks. The crown in is doubled or plates it and a little too yellowish. Perhaps I will put above a red crown of gold 18ct in the future, if I can find a good market. The short acceptable watch, but I would not carry it during days in a line, because the deviation will become too much annoying.
