Vintage Titus Geneve Monopusher Chronograph

Description ▲

This exceptional vintage chronograph by Titus dates back to the early 1950s – a timepiece that impresses not only with its generous proportions but also with its intricate galvanic dial. While most chronographs of the era were produced with cases around 36 mm in diameter, this rare example measures a striking 40 mm – a true rarity that makes it highly desirable among collectors.

The dial features an elaborate two-tone design: a grey outer ring with a telemeter scale frames the deep black center with gilt printing. Roman hour numerals and finely executed subdials at 9 and 3 o’clock highlight the refined elegance of post-war watchmaking. A delicate minute track and gold-colored hands add further aesthetic charm, resulting in a beautifully balanced appearance.

Inside beats the rare Landeron caliber 15 – a monopusher chronograph movement where all chronograph functions are controlled via a single pusher. This unusual mechanism underscores the uniqueness of the watch and adds to its appeal for connoisseurs of fine horology.

The Titus Monopusher combines classic design with mechanical sophistication – a striking witness to 1950s watchmaking history that wears with both confidence and style.
