Specialist note

Reference 3330 is an extremely attractive model much influenced by the early 19th century complicated pocket watches produced by Abraham-Louis Breguet.

A particular feature of the watch is the gold setting pin which is integrally attached to the upper right lug by a short Breguet design chain, the pin is inserted into the strap when not in use.
