1940's Pateks are as cool as it gets with their unique shapes and desirable looks. This watch is very well taken care of and the previous owner took care of the watch very well, going to the extent of putting a new crown, buckle and band on it all signed Patek. The watch retains its shape very well with its hallmark being untouched on the side, sign that if it has ever seen a polish, it was done very lightly in over 80 years.
