Patek Philippe

A little piece of Patek's historical pieces

 

It is an unusual layout I didn't know about.
However I'm glad this watch is in the hands of an owner who wears it regularly, from the updates you bring to this thread.
Thanks a lot and keep on wearing it often!
Cheers, Mark

is nice as well. Never saw one like this before. The only info I can add is that he probably paid about $ 800,-. It would be great if you keep us updated about additional info and the watch after service. Thanks and good luck! Oliver

Please, only service the movement, but no service the dial, the case, and the hands!

Thanks for the information and I'll update with what happens

And a wonderful story. Beats having a new piece without any history, especially if you are interested in engineering and construction (I understand you are).

I am and it's in...

I am and it's in like new condition so it's time for me to start its new story. I love these time pieces and in their own right they all have their unique stories.

Mark, Thanks for your kind words. I enjoy wearing the watch and oddly enough if it wasn't for owning it, and I probably never would've never found this site as my other pieces are Breitlings instead. That said and I've learned a whole lot more about timep...
