Notes

Unknown to the original family, it was not until recently, upon clearing up that this watch was found in the original owners apartment. The family believes this watch was given to him as a farewell gift upon his retirement. Featuring beautiful elongated lugs, the watch has been kept in fully original condition with a very well preserved yellow gold case exhibiting two clear and crisp hallmarks as well as its original silver dial that has turned into a warm yellow color. A great example of the iconic reference 130.

Provenance

Property of the original Swiss family
