Notes

Among the Datejusts, left-handed and black-dialed versions are probably the most sought-after. Combined with the red date wheel, this example is probably one of the most desirable Datejusts with its original black gilt dial. One of the indexes at 10 o clock was lost and replaced by the current one.

Provenance

Property of an Italian Collector
