AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Interesting and rare pocket stopwatch model, born from an exclusive contract between Eberhard & Co and Piaggio & Co of Pontedera, Italy, made in Switzerland in the 1930s/40s approximately.
Working, practically new, never used.
Dial in metal with Arabic numerals. Signed Piaggio & Co. Base 50 M. On the back "Fab. Suisse".
Case in steel, original hands, mineral glass, original. The large hand takes 5 seconds to make one full rotation, while the small hand records the revolutions completed.
Considering Piaggio’s history in the military field, initially this stopwatch was catalogued as a "fighter-bomber military stopwatch" and later as a "piece counter" to measure production times.
Mechanism: a stunning stopwatch stamped "Eberhard & Co", beautiful and clean.
On the back cover the inscription C.A. 42 and below 103.
Measurements: 5.6 cm in diameter x 6.2 cm with crown x 1.2 cm thick. Weight: 107 g.
