A YELLOW GOLD WRISTWATCH WITH SALMON DIAL, MADE FOR KING OF SIAM, CIRCA 1990

Tank Americaine 型號1735 1

黃金腕錶，備鮭魚色錶盤，為暹羅國王而製，錶殼編號9312774，約1990年製

Dial: salmon

Calibre: cal. 9P2 mechanical, 18 jewels

Case: 18k yellow gold, case back secured by 4 screws

Case number: 9'312'774

Closure: black unsigned leather strap and 18k pink gold folding clasp

Size: 45 mm length x 26.5 mm width

Please note this watch was not made for the King of Siam, however it is a commemorative edition to celebrate King Rama IX and his Royal 50th anniversary.

The present watch encased in yellow gold has oxidized very nicely, which matches its original salmon dial, where collectors would call it pink on pink. However, its most extraordinary aspect is its motif at 6 o’clock that signifies that the watch was made for the King of Siam of Thailand.
