For collectors of fine timepieces, the dealer's signature "Freccero" is an additional treat for this already rare watch.
Francisco J. Freccero was a respected dealer of Patek Philippe watches and founded the Freccero jewellery store in 1868 in Montevideo at a young age together with Oscar Spangenberg. To this day the business is in the hands of members of the family.
