This exquisite timepiece is a testament to the legacy of Paul Picot, a brand renowned for its dedication to preserving the esteemed Swiss watchmaking tradition while infusing it with refined innovation. The Ref. 4039-068 boasts a Valjoux 7750 automatic movement encapsulated within a stainless steel case, making it not just a tool for timekeeping but a piece of art in reliable form. Its precise chronograph functionality and tachymeter scale speak to the connoisseur who delights in both form and function. The elegant hands glide smoothly over the delicately crafted dial. It is important to note that the color on the edges of the chrono sub-dials is starting to wear, a characteristic commonly seen in darker colored dials. This subtle patina adds a touch of vintage charm and is virtually imperceptible when worn, blending beautifully with the overall aesthetic while on the wrist. Adding to its allure, this watch comes with two straps to suit any occasion or style preference. It includes a newly fitted, high-quality leather strap that enhances its classic appeal for everyday wear or special occasions. Additionally, as a special gift reflective of our commitment to exceptional service and value, we include the original steel strap. Please note, the lugs on the steel strap require fixing, offering a unique opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts to personalize or restore. With this Paul Picot masterpiece, you acquire more than just a watch; you inherit a slice of horological heritage, designed to celebrate major milestones, encapsulate moments, and, most importantly, to tell your story with every passing second.
