German military chronograph pocket watch signed A. Lunsen, Berlin with a Minerva movement, circa 1940, 45mm diameter. Black dial with Arabic numerals, minute ring, subsidiary constant seconds register, sweep chronograph seconds hand and subsidiary 30 minute chronograph register in very good working condition. Double hinged nickle case, number 554365. Very nice Minerva cal. 19-9 movement, serial number 1588345. For similar pieces, see Konrad Knirim's book, 150 Years Watches and Clocks of German Forces, pages 417 & 418. Based on the hinged case and unmarked case back, probably a piece made for the Wehmarcht artillery.
