This endangered species strap is shown for display purposes only and is not for sale. The watch will be supplied with a calf leather strap.

The present ref. 130 is a fine representative of the celebrated model, distinguished by the attractive two-tone silvered dial, the much sought after Breguet numerals confirmed by the Extract from the Archives, and the rare retailer signature "Tiffany & Co.". Its sale to the North American market is further confirmed by the HOX export mark on the balance bridge of the movement and by the tachymetre calibrated in miles rather than kilometers, rare features reserved for Patek Philippe chronographs intended for the U.S. market.

According to researches, only six ref. 130 in yellow gold bearing the retailer signature Tiffany & Co. are known publically, however only two, including the present watch, are signed Tiffany & Co. on the lower part of the dial.

The alliance between Patek Philippe and Tiffany & Co. began in 1851 under the guidance of the companies’ owners, Charles Louis Tiffany and Antoine Norbert de Patek. In 1854, Tiffany & Co. began introducing Patek Philippe watches to the American market, including some of the rarest models. Since then the relationship flourished, Tiffany being the only name Patek Philippe allowed on the dials of its watches for exceptional occasions.

Reference 130
Reference 130 is Patek Philippe's most classic chronograph design recognized by its Calatrava case, flat rectangular chronograph push buttons and concave bezel. Production was launched in 1934, the model was avaible in different precious metal versions as well as in stainless steel and with a variety of dial layouts.

Reference 130 is described and illustrated in Patek Philippe Museum - Patek Philippe Watches Volume II, pp. 263-265, and in Blue Book 1 by Eric Tortella, 2018 edition, pp. 218-275.
