Specialist note

With GIA gemmological report.

With Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the present watch with pavé diamond set dial and gold bracelet in 1976 and its subsequent sale on 17 November 1977.

Designed in the 1970s, reference 4363 perfectly embodies the flamboyant and imaginative fashion of the time. A superbly rare reference, it is distinguished by its integral bracelet and diamond and hardstone-set design. Only a handful of examples have surfaced over the years, and one can safely assume the overall production was extremely scarce. So far the market had seen examples set with turqoise, and also onix and coral combination. Never before, however, an example set exclusively with pink coral had been spotted. This unique setting imparts a nearly ethereal elegance to this stunning example of horological art. Further boosting the appeal of this superb timepiece, it is offered in exceptional condition, obviously worn only a handful of times.
