Specialist note

Made in 1934, this reference 422 in steel is a little known reference that beautifully exemplifies Art Deco design.

The 9-90 caliber was introduced to the market in 1934 by Patek Philippe with movement number 830000. The presently offered watch, recently serviced by Patek Philippe, bears movement number 830122 and represents one of the earliest versions of this caliber known to exist.
