GALLET MultiChron Pilot Chronograph Excelsior Park 40-68 - 1970
 
Here we have a beautiful Gallet MultiChron Pilot Chronograph, a wonderful example of a rare 1970s chronograph. This WRISTCLASSIC comes with a crisp case in great and unpolished condition. Dating to the 1970s this classic model measures 38 mm. The dial is in nice vintage condition and the large hands give this piece extra charm and character. Powered by a high grade Excelsior Park 40-68 movement, running strong and keeping time well, it is ready for its job. The watch comes with a stainless steel small brick bracelet by Zodiac, completing this cool and sportive chronograph. This extraordinary timepiece is getting harder and harder to find nowadays.
 
Gallet as a historical Swiss manufacturer of first-class watches for professional, military, sports and aviation purposes is the world's oldest clock making house dating back to Mr. Humbertus Gallet, a clock maker who became a citizen of Genève in 1466. The Gallet Company of today is one of the few existing independent Swiss watch brands still upholding in-house manufacturing facilities.
