With its “chevé” shaped glass and its strongly domed case back, this 1948 single-pusher chronograph also features a finely crafted dial with telemetric and tachometric scales. It is entirely in line with the “pebble-type” pocket watches of the early 20th century.
Its ergonomic feel, accentuated by the aesthetic symmetry of both the upper and lower faces, was the main source of inspiration for the design of the Baume & Mercier Capeland watch.
