With Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of this watch with a silvered dial, raised hour markers in yellow gold and tachymetre scale in 1947 and its subsequent sale on 23 December 1947.

Purchased by the father of the present owner in 1947, the watch stands out by its very good overall condition and the retailer's signature.

Production of reference 1579 was launched in 1943. The large case and unusual lugs, also called spider lugs because of their resemblance to a spider's legs, make it easily distinguishable from other Patek Philippe chronograph wristwatches of the era.
