Description

Offered with it's Extract from the Archives, this reference 1593 is a lovely reminder of the golden age of watchmaking and design. The shape of the case gives this reference its nickname - Hour Glass. The beveled crystal is a work of art on its own. Produced over a period of 23 years, this is an earlier example and the perfect addition to any vintage collection, beginning or seasoned.
