專家說明
With Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the present watch with enamel dial, Roman numerals and subsidiary seconds hand in 1912 and its subsequent sale on January 4, 1916.
Patek Philippe produced only a very small number of pocketwatches featuring the additional complication of a carillon repeating mechanism. Our reserach has revealed that only seven examples of such openface watches with no further complications are known to this day. The present watch is furthermore the only one among them with Roman numerals on the dial.
The carillon repeating mechanism is more complicated than the better known quarter or minute repeating function and is more commonly found in clock watches. It features three or four gongs instead of only two. The quarter hours of the present watch are stroke on three hammers onto three gongs.
