Lot 31
A collection of 8 vintage wristwatches
Ollendorff Watch Co., La Chaux-de-Fonds / Ollendorf Co. Inc., New York, "Aida", 23 x 44 mm, circa 1930
An extraordinarily large, early, rectangular wristwatch with chronograph
Case: chromium-plated, push back with hinge. Dial: silvered, tachy scale.
It seems that the extremely rare chronograph function of this watch was not readily accepted by the customers – this could be a reason for the rather low production numbers of this model. There are no clues in literature that refer to this very unusual timepiece.
