PATEK PHILIPPE QUARTER REPEATING HUNTING CASE POCKET WATCH

This massive, 50 mm beautifully preserved, hunting case Patek Philippe repeater is the kind of watch you can keep in your family for generations. Many older collectors we know recall the days of their youth listening to their grandfather’s minute repeaters. It’s an audible experience that becomes indelible in one’s mind. And this experience continues to this day as the present generation is being introduced to these antique marvels. Few hunter case Patek Philippe repeaters were made in the early 20th century due to their cost and the fashion of the times that leaned towards open face watches. This watch is a perfect presentation of the art of case making, dial making and of course the movement. For the collector looking to add a repeater to a collection, this watch is for you. Accompanied by an Extract from the Archive confirming the engraved monogram was done by Patek Philippe ‘enameled in blue and red’. The name is lost to history but ‘R del G’ or ‘G del R’ had exquisite and refined taste in watches, just like the new owner.
