Well my 175th Anniversary piece just arrived and I'm elated! All of the anniversary watches are special in their own right, but this one in particular tugged at my heartstrings and had me dreaming. On a side note the rare handcraft anniversary pieces : 1....  

Congrats for your anniversary piece!

Hi H, huge congrats on getting a rare handicraft 175th watch!!

With your previous post, you really had me guessing which one you were going to get. A handicraft watch did not cross my mind, and hence it was a real pleasant surprise!! Thinking more, it all made sense because this piece is complementary to your 5077 en... 

Thanks Gordon! What's next?

Sometimes with watches that have a dust cover, you get the feeling that it's a nice feature that is out of place on some watches. Not here though, it fits perfectly imo wih the character of this piece. Sincerely H.

Last picture reveals the whole beauty of the piece!

when you mentioned that something from the 175th commemorative pieces is coming in, but also I am not surprised. For me it is easy to see why you fall in love with that specific piece. Hand-engraved dials like this represent one of (if not the) oldest for...  

Thanks Oliver!

I'll take some better close ups of the hands, but from what I've seen It seems like a matte grey finish to, I would guess, white gold hands. The work required to engrave one dial is, as you described, time consuming. The result however is well worth the e... 

Thank you, however

As far as I know regional ADs are unable to place orders for anniversary rare handcraft watches. For these pieces one must deal directly with Salon Geneva. Sincerely H.

Fantastic!
