Notes

Made in approximately 100 pieces only, these early versions made in celebration of the Melbourne Olympics are distinguished by its rare and unusual lacquered dial rather than the normal metal dial. Another feature is the olympic rings that are all painted in a single red color. This watch has been kept in excellent condition and is rarely found in pink gold.
