Vintage 1910s Swiss mechanical open-face sport chronograph pocket watch featuring a 48.25mm gunmetal steel case configured with a single square push-button controller at the 11 o'clock position and a rose gold-tone winding crown and bow loop. The solid gunmetal snap-on caseback displays a weathered matte finish stamped internally with an arched factory signature reading "A.E. STAUFFER SWITZERLAND" and a small numeral "26". The clean white enamel dial showcases a prominent 30-minute tracking register register dial below the 12 o'clock marker with an internal 1-to-30 timeline, bold black painted 5-to-60 secondary numeric blocks, an outer 1-to-60 minutes ring track, a blued steel counter hand, matching main baton hands, and a lower dial callout reading SWISS. The watch is powered by a high-grade, factory-signed Swiss movement utilizing a column-wheel chronograph assembly stamped explicitly "A.E. STAUFFER SWITZERLAND", "7 JEWELS SEVEN", and "2 TWO ADJMT'S".This mechanical chronograph pocket watch is fully operating with crisp start, stop, and flyback reset functions at the time of listing, though a professional service is recommended for precision timing applications.
