Notes

Over its total production run of about 14 years, there were only about 1500 pieces produced in yellow gold including versions having diamond indexes, champagne or blue/grey dials. Finding versions retailed by Beyer are extremely rare, only a few examples in various metals have appeared at auction in the last 10 years and to the best of our knowledge may be the first yellow gold 3700 to appear at auction, complete with its original certificate.
