Wyler Railroad Approved Lifeguard
In 1960, manual and self-wind models from the Incaflex range became the official railway watches of the Santa Fe Railroad
A model issued by Wyler in various formats in the 1960s. It can be found in manual wind with a hacking mechanism and also as an automatic with the Dynawind movement. Notable is the porcelain style white dial with 24hr markers and black hands, echoing the pocket watches of an earlier era. It is believed that this Wyler RR watch was approved not only for railroad use in the USA but also for the Canadian Pacific Railroad.
