Levrette Chronograph
N°14026 - Circa 1950
Sold
“Levrette” (literally meaning “doggy-style” in French) is a brand name that clearly puts a smile on the faces of our French-speaking clients.
The name of this watch manufacture may seem naughty and even suggest a connection with the great tradition of erotic watches, but no. This name is simply derived from another definition of the word, that of a female greyhound, also emblem of the brand.
The brand Levrette has produced a lot of beautiful things including high quality chronographs equipped with the famous Valjoux 22 caliber or other mechanical column wheel movements as it is the case here with this 18k yellow gold watch.
