Manufactured in 1925 – Patek Philippe “Officer” Design
18K Yellow Gold, White Enamel Dial, Breguet Numerals
This is an extremely rare center seconds model.
Among early wristwatches, which commonly feature two hands or a small seconds subdial, a center seconds configuration is highly unusual—making this a particularly rare piece.
It showcases the distinctive officer-style case also known from the Chronometro Gondolo series, a beautiful enamel dial with Breguet numerals paired with blued steel Breguet hands, and is equipped with the Caliber 12SC—featuring a finely grained (perlage) finish and split bridge construction, both characteristic of early wristwatches.
This exquisite piece offers a remarkable aesthetic with its full Breguet numeral dial paired with a rare center seconds layout.
The case back is double-layered, with the inner back engraved with both the movement and case numbers, and the outer back engraved with the case number—demonstrating the meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail that defined this era.
It comes with a rare original 18K yellow gold buckle believed to be from the same period, as well as an archive extract.
