Editor's Notes

Dating back to the early 1940s, this gilt Unver Chronograph watch is a highly collectable timepiece, hand-sourced by jewellery experts at Designer Vintage.

Crafted from gilt metal with a black sharkskin strap, this anti-magnetic chronograph military watch has a blue tachymeter that measures your speed over a measured distance, and a red telemeter which determines an object's distance from you by measuring how long it takes sound to travel. Presented in a circular case with a gently convex crystal front, it features a matte silver dial with metallic blue syringe hands, Arabic numerals, a 30-minute dial at three o'clock, a seconds dial at nine o'clock and an additional stopwatch feature. Complete with the Unver authenticity script, this highly collectable piece is guaranteed to become a much-admired heirloom that can be passed from generation to generation for many years to come.

Please note: Make adjustments with the watch in your hand, not on the wrist. To wind the watch, rotate the crown in a clockwise direction until you feel a tightening of the tension (which indicates an approach to a fully wound state) then stop. To set the time, gently pull the crown, rotate in an anti-clockwise direction to the desired time, and fully depress the crown. Please always ensure hands are rotated forward not backward. To start the stopwatch, depress the pusher. Depress it a second time to stop it, and a third time to reset it.
