Chronographs didn’t always feature dual pushers — one for start, and the other for stop/reset. In fact, it wasn’t until 1934 that Willy Breitling invented the first one. Before that, a single pusher started, stopped, and reset the chronograph. Though this single-pusher system has long been considered far harder to execute than the dual-button arrangement, there are certain exceptions we’re willing to make in order to honor horological history… Türler, founded in Switzerland in 1883 was a renowned retailer known to stock many of the most prestigious brands of the previous era including Omega, Rolex, Vacheron, IWC and more. Frequently, Türler would place their signature on watches they stocked. That's the case with this brilliant monopusher chronograph.  This piece is an excellent representation of 1930s chronos--- patinaed, beautiful, and utilitarian. Featuring a charcoal dial with lovely 'cakey' patinaed 'Breguet' numerals, and a single 'punchy' pusher at 2 o'clock to control the chronograph functions. Outbound, the dial displays a telemeter scale and inbound, a gorgeous 'Breguet' handset ties the pieces all together. Powered by a manual movement, it’s paired to a brown leather strap with a stainless steel pin buckle via a unique lug system that's incredibly 1930s-coated.  After a chronograph with some historical cachet? Look no further!
