Ultra super rare Cortebert KM pocket chronometer for divers, Switzerland for Ger

Description: A real pocket chronometer of a German submarine captain! A high-precision watch (Beobachtungsuhr, class II chronometer), with a very high-quality machine, and most importantly, it is a full-luminous dial, without radium.By itself, a Kriegsmarine marine clock is unlikely to be found, but such ones are especially rare. Watches with a full-luminous dial, according to a book by Konrad Knierim, were intended for submarine commanders.In World War II, less than 5% of German submarines survived, a few were disabled and captured with a crew. The watches were very lucky - they survived on a submarine, the owners treated them carefully, and even with the craftsmen they were lucky, they left practically no traces of repair. This is a rare case when such watches reach our days with their own dial, hands, and even glass. The only thing is the double-headed eagle removed from the back cover, for which in Soviet times they could have been put in jail. Otherwise, the watch is fully consistent with the catalogs and one of the most presentable items that could be found.A unique gift for a connoisseur of the naval theme, a real rarity. The item is completely original and corresponds to the catalog to the smallest detail. Cupronickel case with two lids. Covers with numbers, dense, slam shut clearly. M and number stamped on the outside. Diameter without head 57 mm, ring height 79 mm.
