Description |
You are looking at an ultra-rare, early version of Patek reference 1559 from around 1944. Large case Patek Art Deco style rectangular wrist watches from the late 1920s to the early 1950s have always been priced collector pieces. And they are as wearable and uniquely elegant today as they were back in those days.
The slightly curved gold case with the stepped and curved lugs is more than impressive from any angle. The diameter of this watch is 22.5mm across, not including the crown, and 39.5mm lug to lug. The overall cosmetic condition of this watch is very good. The movement looks clean, and timekeeping is good. The watch has been obviously well taken care of by the previous owners. As a big extra plus: this watch comes on an original Gay Freres 18K solid gold bracelet, made for Patek in 1955. It was acquired about a decade after the watch. The removable bracelet's total wearable length is only 165mm (6.5"), so it is for a smaller wrist. However, original solid gold GF bracelets made for Patek are almost impossible to find anywhere. But if so desired, it can be switched to a leather band of any length in a few minutes. |
