The present watch
shows quite obvious
similarities to the
Rolex reference 6236,
the so-called "Jean-
Claude Killy" and in
fact the movement of
this watch is the same
basic caliber 72C.
Naturally, being a horological
school piece,
it has been modified
and part-made by the
apprentice watchmaker
at the Ecole d'Horlogerie.
However, an
interesting watch with
great visual appeal for
the collector.
