The use of APRIOR sigma marking in 1970s Patek

Jul 07, 2020,09:53 AM
 

Hello

have read that the APRIOR consortium  introduced the use of "sigma-swiss-sigma"  on dials of swiss watches from 1970-1971.  This was to indicate the use of golden  indices in the dial.

Have recently come across this (picture below)  in a ref 3445 white gold, watch from 1970 or 1971 from serials (am waiting for the extract).

Now,  have never seen sigma-swiss-sigma in a 3445 , may be because most o them are form the sixties.

May I ask if any of the experts of the forum has seen one, or more - and what are your thought.   Would not like it to be a replacement by Patek at a later service.

Thanks
Franco

Thnks, but what year is it from? If before 1971, should not have it.

1965 [nt]
