Patek Philippe. A Rare Gold Open Face Pocket watch and Chain C1890

Patek Philippe 18ct Yellow Gold Open Face Keyless Lever Pocket Watch with a rare white enamel dial C1890s.

Dial: A beautiful white enamel dial fully signed Patek Philippe & Cie Geneve with a Roman numeral dial which is very rare, because the numerals are perpendicular all the way round the dial and do not follow the conventional numbering where the Roman three and nine would be horizontal. The subsidiary dial is at six o'clock with Arabic numerals for the seconds dial at ten second intervals. The original blued steel Breguet style moon hands and matching seconds hand complimenting the dial beautifully.

Case: An 18ct yellow gold case fully signed, hallmarked and stamped Patek Philippe with the Calatrava cross. The back cover is plain. The inner cuvette is signed and numbered Patek Phillipe.

Movement: The fully jewelled gilt metal movement numbered and signed Patek Philippe with wolfs tooth winding and wide anchor lever escapement, typical of Gondolo Movement. The movement is in excellent working order.

This watch is very unusual and rare, because of the numeral layout of the dial not often seen in this configuration. The watch has the added advantage of being sold with an albert. This watch would make an outstanding addition to one's collection because of the rarity of the dial. We sell this watch with a one year guarantee
