Lot Essay

This rare and ravishing Belle Époque watch is a very attractive creation from the early 20th century, a fine example of a highly jewelled wristwatch, often unique pieces made by special order or for a particular event or exhibition.

With its 8 lignes movement it is furthermore among the smallest watches with a keyless lever movement ever made by Patek Philippe.

The Extract from the Archives confirms the diamond-set bezel and states that the remaining diamonds are not mentioned, most likely added to a later date by one of the firm’s renowned retailers.
