"Performances meconnues de la montre mecanique" by P. Beguin - Original magazine article (magazine clipping) which was removed from a 1973 Swiss magazine.

Text in the article is in French.

The opening sentence of the article reads:

"Notes eparses d'histoire: La montre, en tant qu'appareil portatif indiquant l'heure, existe maintenant depuis environ un demi-millenaire, puisque les premieres petites horloges montees en pendentifs virent le jour en Italie du nord vers la fin du 15e siecle (selon certains historiens, ce fut aux environs de 1460 a Mantoue)."

The magazine article was carefully removed from a Swiss magazine.

[Please note: this is a magazine article/magazine clipping only; no watch, clock, parts or tools are included.]

The article is 10 pages in length (on 6 sheets of paper) and includes a few small black and white images and diagrams within the text.

As with most vintage magazine clippings, there is some yellowing to the paper due to age as well as light wear and small bends.

The magazine article was carefully removed directly from a Swiss magazine. It is not a copy or reproduction. The rest of the magazine is not included.
