Reissued Observatory Bulletin

 

The Observatory Bulletin arrived yesterday, as reissued by the Geneva Observatory which is now part of the University of Geneva.  After they confirmed by email that records of my particular movement existed, for a fee of CHF 200 they sent PDF copies of the test ledgers and followed up with a signed hard-copy of the Bulletin by mail.  Those interested in obtaining a Bulletin may first enquire by email to Bernard.Pernier at unige.ch.






Those who have the Sotheby's catalog for their recent May sale in Geneva should check out lot 186; a Vacheron Constantin Observatory Tourbillon pocket watch which sold for CHF 80,500.  Movement from 1931 and cased in 1946.  The accompanying Bulletin showed a score of 773 points for a 1st Prize award, as adjusted by Edmund Olivier.
