Notes

While the very early examples were called "Monometer", 1953 marks the year the name Turn-o-graph was first registered. Examples such as this one made in the first year of production that bear the depth in red are very rare and were only made during a very short time making this watch very desirable.

Provenance

Property of an Italian collector
