Remarks

A limited Patek Philippe Jump Hour crafted in 18k rose gold. Ref. 3969R. Created in 1989 to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Patek Philippe, this piece is part of a limited series with only 450 examples produced in rose gold and 50 in platinum. Its case is tonneau-shaped, similar to the original design from the 1920’s, and measures 28mm x 38mm.

It has a silver dial featuring an aperture at 12 o’clock for the jump hour display and Arabic numeral minute markers and a Breguet-style hand for the minute display. Powering the watch is hand wound movement Cal. 215HG, with HG signifying the jump hour complication. 

This watch is rare to come by and even rarer to be seen in a complete set like this. Truly not one to be missed.
