This Tritona Cal AS 1130, is likely a German military-issued watch. The AS 1130 refers to the A. Schild 1130 movement, a well-known Swiss mechanical movement used in many military and civilian watches from the mid-20th century.
These Tritona watches were often issued to German military personnel during World War II and were built for durability and reliability.

Black dial with luminous numerals and hands (probably radium-based), domed plastic glass., these have lost some of their lume but aged beautifully and appear to be original.
