Produced from roughly the 1930s through the 1940s, these chronographs generally utilize a snapback case with a wide variety of lug designs, silver or black dials with numerous handsets, and two-register layouts.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe piece that we have here is simply known as an \u003cem\u003eAntimagnetic Chronograph.\u003c\/em\u003e It features a 35mm case with 'oval' pushers, a beautiful 'onion' crown, and 'hinged' lugs. Inside, the white dial has developed a very attractive and largely even 'toasted' patina across the satin surface, while retains excellent black printing with a telemetré scale on the outside edge and a black-painted handset. It is powered by a manual-winding chronograph movement with a Rolex-signed bridge.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe 1930s-1950s are an era where Rolex was not yet \u003cem\u003ethe big guy\u003c\/em\u003e on the scene. The brad was still figuring out what works and what would stick, so there is a huge variety of designs to be discovered that can seem almost unique.
