We are proud to offer today this extremely fine mid-century ladies Patek Philippe. It is a beautiful example of a gem set Patek Philippe watch with 18K white gold case factory set by Patek with 8 diamonds.
The full size diamonds are exceptionally high quality, as one would expect from original factory set diamonds on a watch of this caliber. Our photos couldn't do it justice.
With its understated silver face and high-fashion case, it showcases a classic, elegant, and ultra-luxurious vintage Patek style.
Powering it is its illustrious original Patek Philippe handwound movement.
We were fortunate to acquire it with all of its original parts down to the hands and winding crown. It presents in beautiful condition.
Its angular Patek Philippe case is in near mint condition with light remnants of wear and signs of previous polishing.
Its silver dial is bright and clean. Under very close scrutiny it appears to likely have been well-refinished in vintage times. And its movement, which is very clean, is keeping accurate time. Photos of the inside available upon request.
And its 18K white gold mesh bracelet, hallmarked 18K white gold and not signed Patek Philippe but very possibly installed by the retailing jeweler at the time of the first sale, presents in excellent condition.
One of our Master Watchmakers has disassembled it down to its last screw and cleaned and oiled it 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, a full-page custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate attesting to the watch's performance. Also accompanying it is an authentication card from Stoll & Co. / eBay's authenticators ($80 value).
Please inquire if you would like us to obtain a Patek Phillipe Archive Extract for it. Patek charges 500 CHF.
