The automobile race car drivers of this era were some of the bravest people in the world. With experimental cars and basically no modern safety gear, it is a wonder how the champions survived multiple years without loosing arms and legs. It's amazing you ...

At the time the watch was quite unknown as to the purpose of the watch until I found the 1919 advertisement. In 2019, I took the watch with me to show Walter Von Kanel this watch and others. It was then I learned they had two of them in their collection. ...

This is a very interesting watch! Was it intended to be open back on the rear dial? I see the basic design is quite similar to my 19.73N
