Ref.1491 was a whimsical deviation from the classic gentlemen’s wristwatch. Produced between 1940 and 1958, the model with scrolled lugs had a bold design that sets it apart from more traditional wristwatches of the era. Today, it is immediately recognizable and highly collectible, and the current example is in lovely original condition, with the retailers name prominently displayed on the dial adding charm and rarity to the timepiece.
