Helvetia Chronograph from the 1950s
Helvetia Chronograph reflects the design language of 1950s, with proportions and details characteristic of its era. Its 38.0 mm proportions, 18ct gold case and original dial create a composed, wearable presence without obscuring the watch’s individual period character. Inside, the manual calibre Landeron 51, fitted with 17 jewels provides the technical foundation and connects the watch with Helvetia’s watchmaking tradition. The calf leather strap completes a practical configuration suited to regular wear. For a contemporary collector, it offers a considered combination of period design, mechanical interest and everyday usability.
