This Patek Philippe timepiece has a pink gold oblong case with beautifully curved drop-shaped lugs. The dial looks very understated, with two applied rod hour markers and a pink gold Arabic "12" as well as delicate black indexes and circular railroad minutes. The watch is powered by the manual calibre 9'''90, one of the best shape movements at the time.
The overall condition of the watch is outstanding. The silvered dial with gold accents has acquired a gentle patina, the case remains unpolished and shows a beautiful warm golden hue.
