A rare and authentic piece of horological history, this "Tramway Watch" was retailed by the renowned C. Dusonchet in Cairo, Egypt. Specifically designed for the rigors of public transit service, the watch features a robust "Non-Magnetic" Swiss lever movement to ensure accuracy around electrical tram equipment. The white enamel dial features bold Roman numerals and a dedicated sub-seconds quadrant. The case back is beautifully engraved with the "Tramway Watch" designation and the Dusonchet Cairo signature. A true collector's item for those interested in Egyptian heritage or transit-related timepieces.
