in addition to the dress watches that do sell now are more from independents and are oriented to time only pieces with artisan dials, movement structures and finishings. Highly complicated pieces were the rage in the late 90s to early 2000s.

Manufactured in 1995, the dial featured on this specimen is considered a “third series” due to the presence of Roman numerals and the omission of “AUTOMATIC” below the moon phase. It is estimated that around 150 of reference 5050 were made in platinum. On...  

A wonderful piece indeed !

Unfortunately this type of PCs are under-appreciated nowadays :-( Hopefully they will get more attention eventually.

Under appreciated? 🤔

I'm curious to know why this is the case.

I like that the leap year doesn't cut into the retrograde date window like on newer references. Thanks for sharing

My exact thoughts my friend;)

It drives me nuts to see the leap year cutting in to the date on the later references…😉

This is certainly something special!

The size, dial, and case proportions are perfect!

Beautiful watch

I did not know it had a brushed dial.
