Notes

Accompanied by the original box, instruction booklet and guarantee, this clock is in almost new condition. The rectangular cased Patek solar clock, reference 1161, is the more commonly seen example and was produced in far greater numbers than the present lot, reference 1100 - the electronic version, which features a center seconds hand. The present lot is further distinguished by the Tiffany & Co. retailer signature and the original buyers' sticker designating the Henri Stern company.
