This is a vintage Apollo Swiss-made sports stopwatch, designed with specialized scales for tracking time during basketball and football games. This unique timepiece is a classic example of mid-century sports instrumentation, featuring a multi-scale dial that clearly marks time intervals specific to these sports, including a prominent red-highlighted zone.

The watch is marked on the dial as "Apollo," "Pat. Appl. For," and "Swiss." It is housed in a chrome-tone case. Please note that this item is being sold in as-is, vintage condition. There is visible wear consistent with the age of the item, including light oxidation on the winding crown and some scratching or wear to the surface of the crystal. The metal casing shows signs of patina and handling marks from past use.

The stopwatch dial is highly detailed with specialized markings for game play. This would make an excellent addition to a collection of vintage sports memorabilia, horological history, or as a display piece for a sports-themed room. Please review all provided photographs to assess the cosmetic condition of the watch in detail, as they form an integral part of this description.
