Until its consignment to this auction by the family of the original owner the present ref. 865/13 was only known through a Patek Philippe archival image, see illustration. It is preserved in very good overall conditon, both covers finely chased and engraved with the theme "Deer Hunt" as confirmed by the Extract from the Archives. The case was supplied by Favre-Perret, master case makers located in La Chaux-de-Fonds.
Reference 865, a hunter case pocket watch, was launched in 1969 and remained in production until the early 1990s. It was available in yellow and white gold and with a variety of decoration styles, including enamel miniatures or portraits, chased or engraved scenes and others.
It is thought that approx. 220 decorated cases were made by the best artists of the time, each unique.
For other examples of Patek Philippe's dress watches with engraved hunting scenes see Patek Philippe Museum, Patek Philippe Watches, Vol. II, 2013, pp. 382 & 383.
