Notes

This watch is very rare in yellow gold. The limited number of caliber 1510 movements produced were used with several references, in steel and gold, with both leather and metal bracelets. All gold examples, such as the present lot, are very rare. Cal. 1510 was launched in 1972. It is the chronometer version of the 1500 caliber, and was made in only 1000 examples.

Property of a Swiss Gentleman
