Description:
This is a vintage Ingersoll mechanical stopwatch, designed for football referees and likely dating from the mid-20th century. It features a chromed metal case with a polished finish and a white dial. A green-shaded area on the dial marks the first 45 minutes of play, providing a visual reference for the duration of a football half. The dial includes detailed second and minute graduations for accurate timekeeping. The stopwatch operates with a single button that controls start, stop, and reset functions, and it is powered by a hand-wound mechanical movement. The design reflects the practical requirements of sports officiating and the mechanical precision characteristic of mid-century Ingersoll timepieces.
