Manufactured in the 1940s by "BUTEX"? This is a very rare water proof baby chronograph with the famous Val.69. This rare baby chronograph has big pushers, a snap back waterproof case, and a back cover that protrudes from the middle case, reminiscent of Longines waterproof chronographs of the same era. The dial is a rare yellow two-tone color dial with pink appliqués and engraved dot indexes, an elaborate construction that gives a sense of craftsmanship despite its obscurity. It is equipped with a Cal.69 made by Valjoux with a diameter of only 23mm, which was said to be the smallest in the world at that time.
