Kelvin Hughes is maker of marine chronometers and ship navigational instruments based in London for over 250 years. During the early 1970s Patek Philippe and Kelvin Hughes embarked on a brief partnership making marine chronometers that were equally suited for a client’s yacht and office.
The present lot is a venerable time capsule of the 1970's, featuring a bold black dial with rectangular luminescent hands. The dial is striking and high legible.
