WW1 German Kaiserliche Marine Taschenuhr – TORPEDO TIMING STOPWATCH – VERY RARE!

You are bidding on a VERY RARE used example of a WW1 German Imperial Navy Kaiserliche Marine Torpedo Timer Stop Watch!

Produced for the German Navy, these stop watches were used for the measurement of torpedo running times and depth charge detonation.

Made of brass with a nickel/chrome plating, this Swiss-made Torpedo Timer Stop Watch is in EXCELLENT functioning condition! Though the crystal shows some very light scratches, the dial and hands are in near MINT condition, with NO damage or corrosion! Note that because I use a camera flash, the scratches show up more pronounced than they actually are in person. Produced in 1918, there are no manufacture marking, however the an Imperial German Navy Crown and “M” (Kaiserliche Marine) is clearly stamped into the back; along with a serial number. Being in used condition, the case does show some signs of wear (scratches, marks, patina), but it is in otherwise VERY NICE condition for its age. 100% functional, and recently serviced, it is a VERY RARE and UNIQUE piece of history, and would make for a VERY NICE addition to any collection, or display!
