It's a football watch! For referees. Probably 1960s. Value? Under 1000 euro probably.
Edit - will try and find link, I saw one on a forum a while back, topic about unusual chronos.

No problem you are welcome
It's a "football (soccer)" watch, used for counting corner kicks and goals, for the home and away team. From the sixties.
There is one on Chrono24, for 2000 Euros. One was sold on Hodinkee for $2500. On ebay is one for 1700 Euros. But others were sold on auctions for as low as 1000 Euros. Depends on condition, of course.

Thank you very much. Really appreciate the help

I don't see a crown - how do you wind it?
The watch has a normal crown. Here it's either missing or perhaps not visible, due to the angle of the photo.

I opened this expecting another fake luxury watch "inherited" from a "relative" but instead this is super interesting watch!
Was there a rule in the 1960s that made counting the total number of corners relevant? (I assume that corner in this case means corner kicks, but maybe it is something else?)
