I am selling my stunning early 1940s Mulco Gilt Dial Steel Chronograph, in nearly NOS condition
This is IMO one of the best condition gilt dial chronographs I have ever seen from the 1940s. It was purchased NOS from a well known dealer in Europe. The original listing is here:

Case is 37mm and completely unpolished, strap is actually original to the watch and shows light wear since I wore the watch a few times. As you can see the watch had original purple backing and was likely unworn and unopened when I purchased it. Crystal may have one light grazing between 12 and 1 near the case edge, but very hard to see. Please note the lugs are fixed bars, so you can change the strap but it will need to be a special fixed bar strap made for the watch.
Service history is unknown but watch functions perfectly. The story from the dealer when I bought it was he purchased it from child of the original owner and it had literally been found in a drawer after 80 years.
The watch is now for sale in a no-reserve auction on Ebay. If an OF member wins I will ship for free at my expense CONUS, or at my cost internationally. Additionally, I will honor a lower buy it now price for OF members (5k vs 5500 on ebay)

I have perfect feedback on Ebay, OF, and TRF so bid with confidence. Unfortunately this does not get enough wrist time and I limit the # of watches i hold so the collection doesn't get out of control, so this should go to an owner that will value such a special piece
Thx OF for the space
