Horology By The Sea is proud to offer this pre-owned offering of the Type 10 "Sihlwald" from Albishorn Watches, an imaginary ancestor to the renowned Type 20 with a handsome green dial.
Like all pilot chronographs, the dial of the Type 10 was designed with a focus on legibility and functionality. Its striking grained finish serves as a backdrop for the contrasting luminous numerals and hands that rest above. The Type 10 features two sub-dials positioned at 4:30 and 7:30, showcasing the running seconds and the elapsed minutes respectively. In addition, it features a unique and patented chronograph function indicator at 12 o’clock. The inclusion of two counters at the bottom of the dial contributes to a clear and well-organized “dashboard type” design.
The rotating bezel features engraved graduations alternately filled with lacquer and luminous material. Just beside the crown crafted in bronze sits a red aluminum pusher—subtly integrated into the design. This placement allows it to be naturally operated by the thumb, widely regarded as the most efficient digit for engaging a chronograph. Its generous dimensions make activation effortless, while lending the watch an additional touch of individuality.
The manual-winding COSC-certified chronograph movement operates at 4Hz and offers a 65 hour power reserve.
The Stainless Steel case measures 39mm x 12mm (including crystal) x 47.7mm lug-to-lug and has a bezel diameter of 41.7mm. Furnished on an OEM black calfskin strap with steel Albishorn pin buckle, and and an additonal green calfskin strap with Albishorn pin buckle. This watch is part of an unnumbered 99 piece special edition and is in Mint condition. Complete with Box, COSC certificate, and papers dated 7/29/2025.
