Gallet - Multichron ‘Jim Clark’ Gentlemen's watch, mechanical movement, buffalo leather strap, circa 1958-1961.
Bracelet size 20mm Dial: Original black dial with tritium Arabic numerals, original hands with tritium filling. Movement: Mechanical Functions: Time and chronograph Caliber: Valjoux 72 Gallet is known for its historic production of chronographs. Among the most famous models in the brand's catalogue are the Flying Officer and the Clamshell chronograph, considered to be the first water-resistant chronograph wristwatch. The former was worn by President Harry Truman and is extremely rare. Gallet chronographs were often designed with specialist functionality in mind, including decimal scales for industrial purposes, pulse scales for doctors, yachting registers for boat racing, tachymetric scales for tracking speed during motor racing and telemetric scales for tracking distance via sound. The Gallet we have here has been nicknamed the ‘Jim Clark’ by collectors because a similar black-dialled Gallet, Multichron 12, was worn by the F1 and Indy 500 champion. Mr Clark actually won the Indy 500 wearing his Gallet. Good working order
