1930s Vulcain Rare Jumbo Cushion Chronograph with the Renowned Valjoux GHT Movement and Two-Tone Sector Dial
This rare Vulcain chronograph from the 1930s features the highly regarded Valjoux GHT movement, housed in an exceptionally rare 37mm jumbo cushion case. The Valjoux GHT is a particularly important early chronograph movement that later served as the foundation for the renowned Valjoux 22.
The dial features the highly sought-after numberless sector design, often regarded as one of the finest dial styles found among the diverse designs of vintage watches. Its sophisticated layout incorporates a telemeter scale and snail tachymeter scale, giving the watch a distinctive and highly functional appearance characteristic of vintage chronographs.
The sector dial is beautifully complemented by blued-steel sword hands, while the thick, substantial cushion case adds an impressive sense of volume and a superb vintage character.
An exceptionally rare and desirable chronograph that combines an important early movement, an unusually large cushion case, and a beautifully preserved period dial.
