The most striking feature of this timepiece, other than its amazing condition, is the dazzling color combination of its dial.
A potent mix of dark and light blue central portion, white subdials and outer track and red five minute markers and chronograph hand give the watch a most surprising and arresting visual appeal.
This spectacular model is dubbed by collectors as the “Nina Rindt” ever since the wife of the famous Formula One driver, Jochen Rindt, was photographed wearing this model on a Bund style strap and with sunglasses giving her a definitely “cool cat” allure.
Known as the “Exotic Nina Rind” this dial variation is the rarest of all the reference 885.108 “Nina Rind" models. In absolutely superb condition with strong case, crisp engraved numbers on the caseback and immaculate dial, this watch presents a rare opportunity to purchase a beautiful watch that is fast becoming an iconic vintage chronograph.
