With Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of this watch with raised gold hour markers in 1955 and its subsequent sale on February 27th. 1956.
As far as I know, This ref.96 is the only known steel 96 made after 1951 and extremely rare to have lapped indexes and dauphine hands.
