Luminous yellow gold dauphine hands. M. Cal. 9’’’3/4, rhodium-plated, 18 jewels, straight line lever escapement, monometallic balance, self-compensating Breguet balance spring. Dial, case and movement signed. DIAM. 36 mm. THICKNESS 14 mm. Notes Bought new by the father of the consignor, the watch has been kept in a safe untouched for the past 30 years. The case and caseback show a wonderful light oxydation/patina that attest to its dormant condition. Furthermore the caseback is free from any watchmakers mark maybe indicating that it has truly not been serviced. To complete its desirability the watch has not been detailed in decades as shown by the mint hallmark to the back of the case and the perfect patina on the dial and all luminous dots still present and matching to the hands.
