Scarce and wonderful Patek Philippe Chronometro Gondolo 18K Rose Gold Pocket Watch in excellent condition and WITH ARCHIVAL PAPERS. This is the largest size for Patek Philippe’s famed Chronometro Gondolo watches at 56mm and very heavy for an open-faced watch at 132g. The legendary Chronometro Gondolo by Patek Philippe was initially made for the ultra wealthy ‘Gondolo Gang’ watch club members starting from 1872 and sold through Patek Philippe’s exclusive agent in Brazil in Gondolo & Labouriau. These top grade pocket watches sold to Brazil were made to Brazilian taste and specifications. No other Patek Philippe pocket watches were made in as many sizes and as large in open face format (such as this example we have for sale at 56mm), it is also customized to have 9K solid gold train wheels, mustache lever fork, snail cam regulator, and wolf teeth winding wheels. This particular Chronometro Gondolo also has the model text prominently displayed on the dial with large capital letters which is preferred by many collectors. All of the owners that purchase these largest sized Chronometro Gondolo watches belonged to Brazilian high society as the cost of buying such an extravagant timepiece amounts to several years of salary for the average wage earner.
