Philip Watch - caribbean 2000 cronografo - 713 - Men - 1970-1979

Two master watchmakers, the Swiss François Philippe and the Neapolitan Filippo Giardiello, founded Philippe Watch.

From the late 1960s, the company introduced its first divers’ watches, “sealed” using the Caribbean technique, patented by Jenny and later adopted by numerous other maisons. The Caribbean 1000 and 2000 were introduced: professional diving watches with monobloc cases capable of reaching depths of 1,000 metres.

Reference 713, a rare manual-winding chronograph, originally tested to a depth of 1,000 metres, with a monobloc case measuring exactly 50 mm in diameter, produced in the 1970s. Steel monobloc case in exceptional condition, with pump-style chronograph pushers and the original screw-down crown. Bidirectional rotating two-tone blue and white Bakelite bezel with a dual scale. Original metallic white dial with white counters and signs of spotting on the left. Manual-winding mechanical movement with three counters, Valjoux 72 calibre, working perfectly as both a watch and a chronograph, having been professionally serviced by our watchmaker. Watch in exceptional overall condition.

Original steel bracelet in perfect condition with original extension link.
