Patek Philippe was originally known for their high class pocket watch movements before they started making the wristwatches we all know and love today. The present example is in great shape for almost being 100 years old and with it being accompanied by the original box and papers it is a rare and "priceless" find.
Condition Report: Watch wear is commensurate with age. Dial is in good condition, with moderate discoloration. One hand is slightly bent. Case has minor scratches. Movement is running at the time of cataloging. The present example is in overall good c condition.

Pre-owned watches, unless still in original packaging or never worn, will likely have some degree of wear and scratches. This should be expected for many of the watches offered in auction. Even if a watch is running, bidders and buyers should expect that all movements will require maintenance. Watches are not guaranteed to be keeping time. Fortuna recommends that all successful buyers promptly take their watches to a professional watchmaker for evaluation.

Any reference to condition in a condition report will not include a full description of condition, and for example, may not specify all faults, alteration, adaptation, mechanical replacements or imperfections to the movement, case, or dial.
