Perseo FO 'Military'
The only world time chronograph, and the earliest chronograph to featuring a rotating bezel, the ‘Flying Officer’ model boasts an incredibly rich history, such as being President Truman’s watch.
This particular Perseo variant is one of the last batches of flying officers ever made - as the story goes, Gallet was in serious financial jeopardy in the 1970s and sold a stock of cases and movements to the Italian brand, which at the time supplied both the military and the Railway system with watches.
Virtually unworn and in immaculate condition, this oversize chronograph features a Landeron movement ticking strongly. A testament to the history of post quartz watchmaking, this worldly timepiece is now available.
