Patek Philippe split chronograph wrist watch (circa 1945).

before restoration

Extremely rare wrist watch with split chronograph mechanism. This watch had been badly treated, lots of parts were missing and during the decades it had been covered with rust. The aim for the restoration was to bring back the excellence the movement had when it was brand new some 60 years ago. Such a restoration is a very long working process and took several months to complete. All the missing parts were made exactly as they were originally, both technically and aesthetically. All the pieces which were possible to conserve were conserved, so that the movement stays as original as possible. Once the watch is restored it is ready to stand the test of time for the next century.
