Vintage stopwatches and rally stuff

[Bullethead]

With interest in classic vintage chronographs, is anyone collecting rally gear? Stopwatches, timers, hub-mount odometers, Curta calculators?
Here's a few I've found over the years, would love to see others that might be collecting dust.

The Meylan and Omega dash clocks are typical of the period and identical to Hanhart or Heuer products, even made by the same companies.
The plastic dash mount with the Omega is 1967-72. More common (and probably for good reason: stronger) are chrome steel "fingers" that screw into the dash,
or a plate mounting 2 or 3 watches. Repops have become available lately. Hanhart makes a very attractive set suitable for the vintage tour crowd.
The Minerva timing board has one clock that's the wrong size & model. I'm looking for another like the center watch.
The Hanhart control timer is the split time type.

Wow, great pieces! You have a very nice collection. I have a Type I Curta calculator with a 42,XXX serial number that is in MINT condition. I had it for sale in this thread.

Thanks, t6dpilot... this small accumulation is limited mostly by my budget.
That very nice peppermill of yours, for instance: it would be hard to convince my bride how important it is for me to have it.

Here's an amazing, very fairly priced piece I missed completely (sold on eBay for under $700):

I've been following this pair on EBay - $1975 with 4 days to go.

Jim:

This is an unusual pairing of Heuers: two Monte Carlos with jumping hour discs, both with tachymeter faces, but one is a "three button" and the other is "two button".

Both are lovely looking watches but the three button is early style up to '67 while the two button is '68 and later version.

Note that the faces show small differences in font size and layout of numerals.
