Patek, Philippe & Cie. , Genève, No. 197708, case No. 409792, manufactured in 1922, sold to Mr. L. L. Cuttler on October 21, 1929. Extremely fine and rare 18K gold keyless, astronomical, minute-repeating pocket watch with perpetual calendar, phases of the moon and split-seconds chronograph. Accompanied by the Extract from the Archives. Notes Triple-complication Patek Philippe watches appear on the market very rarely, no more than once a year. There are fewer than 50 of them known and they are perhaps the most representative of Patek Philippe pocket watches. The present watch was chosen to represent Patek Philippe triple-complication watches in "Uhren von Patek Philippe" by H. Vogel, Düsseldorf, 1980, pp. 70-71.
