This is a very old Heuer chronograph. It was not difficult to find out how old it was. It has a engraving on the back with the year 1940. The copper colored dial has a lot of patina and adds a lot of charater to this old clunker.
The pin like blued hands match the art deco style dial perfect. The ultra thin hands give the watch a special look. It has a sort of 1930s art deco feeling. Very cool.
Landeron 13, unsigned bridge is normal for this age.
The snap on case back has a mystery engraving "G.H.R.P. from the SOO STAFF 1940". If anyone knows the meaning please make contact. The watch came to me from US.
Best regards
Jarl
