Notes
Launched in 1978, under the impulse of Jacqueline Dimmer, it marked the launch of an iconic watch for the brand, a slim perpetual calendar wristwatch. Early examples such as this one (No. 0311) are rare as these were only produced until 1984 before being replaced with the new reference number 25548. Only these examples were signed "Swiss" at 6 o clock and had hallmarks on the outer caseback. This example consigned by the original owner is in as new condition showing almost no wear with crisp hallmarks and engravings.
Provenance
Property of the original Swiss owner
