Overseas Automatic 35 Pink Gold - Diamond / Green / Bracelet

In Context

At 35 mm it is classically proportioned: the size a dress watch was understood to be for most of the twentieth century, and small enough to sit under a cuff. At 9.33 mm thick it is about average for a modern wristwatch. The case back is open, so the movement is visible without taking the watch apart, and the sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse. 150 m is genuine swimming resistance — more than the shape of this watch suggests it would need.

The movement winds itself from the motion of your wrist. 40 hours of reserve carries it overnight, but not through a weekend in a drawer. At 28,800 vph the seconds hand advances 8 times a second.

4605V/200R-B969 is one of 2 executions of the 4605V/200R base reference. Underneath they are the same watch; what separates this one is a green sunburst dial and a pink gold case.

This 144-component movement with a 4 Hz rhythm is equipped with a stop-seconds mechanism, enabling precise adjustment of the timekeeping functions. Featuring rear bridges bearing the Côtes de Genève motif, it is fitted with a rotor in 22K gold, adorned with a compass rose. 1088/1 Manufacture calibre Mechanical, self-winding 22K gold Overseas oscillating weight 20.80 mm (9’’’) diameter, 3.83 mm thick Approximately 40 hours of power reserve 4 Hz (28,800 vibrations/hour) 144 components 26 jewels
