These 1st Series Compur are uber rare and historically very important as most likely the first chronographs with 2 pushers (or among the first, not 100% sure yet).
They are finally getting the attention they deserve. The fact that this example was in steel and with a black sector dial definitively also helped
!
FYI, these early Compurs actually work like a mono-pusher (start-stop-reset via the pusher at 2 o'clock) with the addition of an extra pusher at 4 o'clock to temporary stop and restart the chrono second hand while in use.
They were only produced for about 1/1.5 years back in 1934, then the "standard" Compur with Martel caliber 285 came out and they work as any normal 2-pushers chronographs that we see today (pusher at 2 o'clock start and stops and pusher at 4 resets).
