Its case has a wonderful vintage style with wide bezel and decorated sides. Its understated and timeless silver face with traditional Patek minute track showcases a classic and elegant vintage Patek style. It has warmed to a sepia tone, giving it a true vintage look.
As a mens midsize it is well-suited for someone who doesn't have large wrists, although its wide bezel and lugs make it wear just a bit larger than its dimensions.
Powering it is its illustrious Patek Philippe handwound movement, among the finest hand-winding movements built. The extremely high-grade movement has eight adjustments - five for chronometer positions and three for heat, cold, and isochronism and wolf's tooth gearing.
On the wrist it presents in very pleasing condition. The case back has a slight gap on the sides - it presents very nicely. Its silver dial shows only light aging and wonderful toning. Please inquire if you would like it refinished. Its movement is clean.
Our watchmaker has freshly cleaned and oiled the movement and installed a new correct mineral glass crystal. Photos of the inside available upon request.
For the finishing touch we have equipped it with a brand new Teju lizard strap making it ready for immediate enjoyment.
Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. international warranty on the movement and its function and a new timing certificate.
