This unique and incredible Patek Philippe ref.130JSC is 1 of just 2, central sweep seconds time-only ref.130’s ever known. Having had the pleasure of previously owning and selling the only other known example, we can confirm each is unique in its own right, with the present example featuring a different type of movement which is more highly decorated and this extremely attractive sector dial with central cross hairs and applied gold Arabic numerals (See video on our instagram).

Just a couple of serial numbers from its sibling, this special watch was also retailed by Guillermin in Paris. The iconic Vichet 130 monopusher style case, synonymous with the typical chronograph version of the reference which are a grail for collectors, features 4 hallmarks to its exterior, Swiss Helvetia for Geneva and French owl import marks; impressive preservation for such an early piece. The engraved-enamelled stern two-tone sector dial is simply sublime, with the highly attractive cross hairs design, it really looks like a monopusher and is the definition of “if you know, you know”.
