indirect seconds and onion crown as was common in the Kriegsmarine's deck watches at the end of the 1930s, see Knirim p. 256ff
The movement, almost identical to the Junghans 29A, is its further development. Torpedo running time watches with Junghans 29 I caliber are many times rarer than 29A movements
A rare piece of military and naval watch history, as it does not often come onto the market
Description:
The Junghans Torpedo running time watch, stopwatch has the usual naval dimensions of 47mm case diameter, silver dial signed with full "Junghans" lettering, with upper, indirect seconds, onion crown, pressed three-cover watch with inner movement protection cover, spotless, "Junghans 29 I" signed movement
This signature is extraordinarily rare; usually only a "J" was embossed in the logo star. I have never seen the name "Junghans" written out completely in the star in 35 years of watch collecting passion.
The stopwatch is fully functional (accuracy not tested). Signed movement spotless, case and glass show few discernible signs of age or use, unrestored dial in perfect condition, case back has clear patina and signs of use, probably from splash water and unavoidable in the confined and hectic environment of a submarine.
Condition 1 - 2: used collector's condition with hardly any discernible signs of age or use. Winding is smooth, runs and functions perfectly (accuracy not tested), all covers close tightly and flush, no scratches from opening.
