This is a very rare watch due to an unusual dial design which has been greatly influenced by the Art Deco period. Our research has lead us to find the original dial archive image illustrated below. It is interesting to notice the geometrical way by which all elements are displayed on this unique dial. This example is an excellent demonstration of Patek Philippe’s work from the Art Deco period, work which not only influenced art history but also inspired the Swiss watch making industry.
