Aristo Apollo Stopwatch Swiss Caliber Baumgartner 411 (GBF)
This is a great working vintage Aristo Apollo stopwatch in excellent condition, that we estimate to be from the 1970s! It has a flawless white dial with a sub minute hand that times up to 30 minutes, and is signed Aristo Apollo, 7 Jewels, Shock Resistant, and Made in Switzerland. It has bold, black and red Arabic numerals, black minute and second marks, and blued steel stick-style hands. The silver base metal case measures 51.6 mms. It features a strong pushdown stem-winding crown.
The movement is marked Erwin Schlup, Swiss Made, Seven 7 Jewels, Unadjusted GBF 411, and the inside of the case back is marked Swiss Made, Base Metal, Erwin Schlup, and Swiss.
This is a very practical, great looking and functioning stopwatch that one can either use or keep in a collection.

Vintage watches are traditionally smaller than today's watches. Men’s watches typically measure between 29-36mm wide (some larger, some smaller) excluding the crown. In the listing details we typically try to do our best to list all pertinent dimensions of a watch. If you don't see it, or we failed to do so, please reach out to us. Women’s watches from the 1900s-1970s were also much smaller than today's offerings. Please also feel free to ask any questions you have pertaining to size.
We prefer to shoot photographs outside when weather is permitting. However, when we shoot indoors, please be aware that we shoot our photographs inside of lightboxes that are lit with 360 LED bulbs. This indeed magnifies any flaws. Usually, they are much less obvious to the naked eye. Having said that, we never photoshop any of our photography, remove blemishes, etc. We adjust lighting when necessary, but what you see is what you are getting, and we take pride in that.
The condition is pre-owned.
The item may have some signs of cosmetic wear but is fully operational and functions as intended. Please review the photos and feel free to ask any questions you may have. It will be carefully packed.
