The reference 130 is one of Patek Philippe's landmark models, The first chronograph to be given a reference number, it was launched in 1934 and remained in production until the 1960s. Distinguished by its timeless design, the model remains an icon of vintage production. When looking at the dial, one is immediately drawn to the applied gold Breguet numerals, beautifully set against the immaculately preserved silvered dial. With raised enamel, the manufacturer’s signature and scales represent the firm's skill of production. Furthermore, the case is also exceedingly well-preserved, highlighted in the hallmark to the case side, similar to when this watch left the factory 50 years ago.
A strikingly similar reference 130 with Breguet numerals and with the tachymeter scale for miles was once favored and owned by famed American athlete, Joe DiMaggio, and was sold at Christie's' New York in December, 2017, realizing a value of $281,250.
