Greetings; This watch has a LePhare cal. 114VCC chronograph movement. It appears to have been made in the 1920's. It was in rather sad condition, but now it's working as it should.

On the dial, above the 11 o'clock position, it says "OUTPUT PER HOUR" This suggests it was intended for use in a factory measuring how many products are being made per hour. It also suggests the watch was intended for an English speaking part of the world.

Has anyone encountered such a watch dial before?
