Note du spécialiste

The reference 2446C was launched in 1968. The “C” designation stands for compression case, which all had snap on case backs. They were designed to improve the water-resistance and featured a larger case than its predecessors. The lugs are distinctive and thick, with bevels that are sensitive to any form of polishing.

Consigned by its original owner, the present example features a Tachymeter “tooth” bezel and is in exceptionally well-preseved overall condition.
