Its penetrating blue color is made even more evident by the total lack of indexes and by the unique presence of the white signature and the gold feuille hands. Lapis lazuli is also reused for the cabochon to adjust the time at 3 o’clock while the rectangular size case has a particular enlarged stripped decoration. Preserved in good overall condition, at the time of production this watch was intended for a man’s wrist, but it would also be suitable for a lady. With Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the present watch in yellow gold with lapis lazuli dial in 1977 and its subsequent sale on 26 July 1978.
