Very unusual vintage Atlantic watch with stop seconds one minute timing device (chronograph), the timer (seconds hand) is constantly running and is controlled by the two push buttons on either side of the crown. The top button is a brake, while pushed it temporally stops second hand, when released second hand starts moving again. The lower button returns the second hand to the 12 position, when returned it immediately starts moving again unless the break is pushed at the same time. Great for timing short duration events, a very unusual and highly collectable timepiece. The 17 jewel manual wind movement has been serviced by our watchmaker and is in excellent working condition. Watch case is chromed metal and has a steel snapback. Photos are not actual size, watch measures 34 x 43mm (not including crown) and is fit with a leather bracelet.
