A Rare and Collectable Gallet Doctors Watch in Superb Original Condition Powered By The Venus 140 Manual-Wind Chronograph Movement - c.1940s

Gallet is one of Switzerland’s oldest watchmaking names, tracing its roots back to 1466, with modern watch production established in the 19th century. The brand became especially respected for robust chronographs and timing instruments, supplying aviators, racing drivers and explorers with reliable tool watches. Gallet played a notable role in early aviation and motorsport timing, with models like the Multichron becoming cult favourites among vintage chronograph collectors today.

What's on Offer

A wonderfully characterful Gallet MultiChron Regulator chronograph from the 1940s, this stainless steel doctor’s watch is a superb example of early professional chronograph design. The beautifully aged two-tone dial features a clear 30-minute chronograph counter, crisp Arabic numerals and elegant blued hands, offering excellent legibility and period charm. The stepped steel case wears beautifully on the wrist and retains all the honest character you’d hope for in a watch of this age.

Powering the watch is the highly regarded Venus 140 manual-wind chronograph movement, renowned among collectors for its reliability, smooth pusher action and historical importance as one of the great mid-century chronograph calibres. Compact yet full of presence, this is a wonderfully wearable vintage chronograph with real tool-watch heritage and timeless appeal — equally at home in a serious collection or on the wrist as a daily vintage companion.
