Notes
Kept in the family of the original buyer since new, this
reference 3525 has to be a highlight in any rare chronograph
collection. Maintained in impeccable original condition, with
its case numbers clearly visible on the outer caseback as well
as a beautifully aged original dial, it is without doubt the
nicest reference 3525 to have appeared at auction in the last
15 years.
