拍品专文

Entirely fresh to the market, consigned by descendants of the original owner, this Gobbi Milano retailed chronograph is an extremely appealing pink gold example of Patek Philippe's celebrated “spider lugs” reference 1579. The dial of the present watch can only be described as superb, being totally original and untouched it has developed the most pleasing pale champagne hue.

Overhauled in the workshops of Patek Philippe in 2016, the watch is furthermore preserved in very good overall condition.

Reference 1579
Reference 1579 was launched at the Basel fair in 1943 and remained in Patek Philippe catalogues until 1964. The three-piece cases were made by Wenger, the dials were provided by the renowned Stern Frères, the movements based on the Valjoux 13''' ébauche, renamed by Patek Philippe calibre 13-130 after having been finished to highest standards in the firm’s workshops.

Reference 1579 was made in two series:

-1st series from 1943 to 1949: Arabic and baton numerals, baton or feuille hands
-2nd series from 1950 to 1964: Arabic and square numerals, feuille hands, such as the present watch

Reference 1579 is described and illustrated in Patek Philippe Museum - Patek Philippe Watches, Volume II, pp. 267-268.
