Mathey Tissot Chronograph form the 40's. Gone but not forgotten.
Some years ago, I had to let some of my pieces go, to fund some important watch projects...
One of those which have gone is this superb Mathey Tissot: The size was great ( 38 mm ), the dial was awesome, and the movement common for a watch from this era ( Valjoux 22 or 23 ).
Here is one picture of this vintage chronograph:
A watch with character and in great condition!
Sigh...

Lovely, my friend
It must have been so hard to let it go. But the grail you must have got is surely more lovely! Thanks for sharing! René
It had a smile at it’s face
And I love chronos with smiles! At least I hope you found a good new home for it 😊 Thanks for sharing! René
Whether it's big funds to find, or . . .
. . . or big finds to fund, we've all been there, Nicolas! I hate the 'letting go' process, but it's necessary at times . . .
I don't recall this one, good to see a photo.
I am very much a less is more person, especially as I age. Easier for me to keep track of fewer things!
