Description from the seller
Vintage mechanical stopwatch – 16 jewels – 1/5 second – Caliber 42808

The stopwatch features a clear, light-colored dial with large black numerals and a central second hand. The small subdial at the top records the elapsed minutes.
The mechanical movement is equipped with 16 jewels (ruby bearings), contributing to reduced friction and wear.
The stopwatch has a chrome-like metal case with a neatly finished back cover. The movement is stamped with the number 0099 and the designation 42808.
