Notes
Never offered at auction before this example of reference 145.012 has the exotic racing dial much appreciated by collectors. Known as the red Racing dial due to its colourful accents on the outer track, it appears that all these examples were delivered to Switzerland retailers as confirmed by the extract from the archives. Featuring the straight white hand for the chronograph, these Pre-Professional versions are extremely rare and so far only about a dozen examples are known to the public.
Provenance
Property of a Belgian collector
