Notes

Part of the beautiful line of Patek Philippe dress watches like the Hour Glass, the Pagoda, the Manta Ray, this recently discovered example is not to be confused with the Top Hat as its case is a full 2.5 mm longer and is bombe unlike the Top Hat that has a flat case but a bombe glass. Fresh to the market, it has been preserved in very good condition still fitted with its original leather strap and buckle.

Provenance

Property of a Swiss family
