Notes

Ref. 130 Production of this reference started in 1934, in stainless steel, yellow gold, pink gold, and only three known in white gold. It is one of the most desirable and sought-after sport watches ever created by the Patek Philippe firm. Sophisticated collectors appreciate this model's perfect proportions, its large and clearly-read dial, encircled by a slender, concave bezel which gives the dial an even greater luminosity.
