I love these old military clocks.
I have several in my collection including a Swiss-made Jaeger LeCoultre Chronograph: It was built for the Russian military in the 1930's (who would have thought they could afford it?) & you see them in eBay every once in a while: *** This chronograph, in it's original Swiss version, is sometimes found in elegant & expensive touring cars in the 1930's, like John Mozart's 1937 Alfa Romeo's 8C 2900B Touring Spyder (a Pebble Concours winner): And also some post-war rally cars! *** The OP's piece looks terrific & seems to be a Russian-made (Wostok) version of a Swiss Jaeger LeCoultre 'Chronoflite'. It was used in the Mig 15 (Korean War era) & beyond. You can see an early version on this Mig 15 cockpit: It is more common & affordable to purchase that the earlier Swiss made Jaegers: Saludos, Eduardo Scottsdale, AZ but currently in NJ (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif) * |
