Produced in the late 1930s, the present pocket watch impresses with the rarity of its stainless steel case and the beauty of its three-tone dial. Since its earliest days through the 1970s, the overwhelming majority of Patek Philippe’s watches were produced in gold or platinum, and only very few were cased in stainless steel. Housed in a large 47mm case, this watch is fitted with an unusual and rare dial with art deco motif. The geometric design of the multiple-tone dial, the “chemin de fer” railway minute track, and the delightful font of the numerals capture the architectural, modern style that defined the art deco movement of the late 1920s through 1940s. The long and refined blued-steel hands provide the finishing touch for this timeless and elegant watch that looks as stylish and modern today as it did so many decades ago.
