Specialist note

The present watch is a rare 1940s military chronograph which is furthermore offered in excellent overall condition. The spiral tachymeter on the dial makes it extremely appealing visually. Furthermore, it appears to have a Portuguese hallmark on the top left lug. To the best of our knowledge, a watch with this exact style of dial has not appeared to the market. Overall, it is an extremely rare and attractive Heuer chronograph.
