This watch has recently been in my workshop for a service.

WW2 Luftwaffe Glashutte Tutima chronograph No.200900 .

The case is in heavy nickel-silver plate over brass and is in remarkable condition.

The outside of the rear case cover has the engraved watch/movement number 200900.

Inside of the rear case cover has the machine stamped wording 'WASSERGESCHUTZT' (water resistant) along with manufacturers name and location 'UHRENFABRIK AG. GLASHUTTE (Sa)'.

The watch has a Urofa 15 Ligne Calibre 59 chronograph movement with 21 jewels, mono-metallic screw balance and self-compensating Breguet hairspring. The movement has the matching number to the case number.

The early quality watch movement has mercuric gilt plates and bridges.

The fitted plexi-glass is the original glass fitted to the watch from new.

The original crown is the rare extended type and is in very good condition.

The watch was stripped down to every component part followed by cleaning, inspection, rebuild and lubrication.

A new mainspring was fitted as after 80+ years the mainspring can assume a permanent set and lose power.

The watch was then rebuilt followed by testing and adjustments for timekeeping and chronograph functionality.

The original strap was restitched and restored.

Early WW2 Tutima Watches in this condition are rare and are now extremely difficult to find for sale on the open market.

If you are looking to purchase a WW2 Tutima or Hanhart chronograph please contact me to discuss availability.
