38 is Great . . . Waterproof Chronos from the 1940s

Swiss made, 38 millimeter, stainless steel, waterproof chronographs from the 1940s . . . so much in common, but also so many differences.

  • two registers or three?
  • numerals or dots?
  • syringe hands, but fat or thin?
  • Geiger counter at 8 or at 40?
  • Venus or Valjoux?
  • and I almost forgot -- Breitling or Heuer?
Can we sum it up with the phrase, "the Beauty and the Beast"?
