Wow... it's like one of those super-thin Piaget dress watch. Amazing they manage to design such a thin case and movement back in the 60s. You got a winner. 33m a bit too small for me though. Is the case Yellow Gold? I seldom come across Vintage AP watches in this forum. This is the first time I saw one posted here.

Although we still see some pretty flat cases nowadays I don't see companies going back to watches like this one, you can only make movements so thin and they're always more fragile when you do so, therefore you must make sure you don't jeopardize the accuracy of the movement by trying to make is too thin. 33mm isn't for everybody, I know that nowadays such a watch would most probably be at least 38mm if AP had to make another similar model but for a piece of that age I think the size is just right as long as it fits your style. As for the case, it is indeed yellow gold, I wanted something very classy for a dress watch and I needed something thin, made of yellow gold and with only two hands. If you want to see another vintage model, Bas's dress watch thread in the Non-Rolex Watches section has a picture of another member's vintage AP, it has a white dial, a centered second hand and looks every so beautiful.

Thank you Neil, they're just phone pictures but with that new cellphone of mine they do come out better than the ones I'd take with my previous model.
Lovely ROC as well, I really like that model.

Tried to post this before, but think it got blocked for having a url in it? (although it was a url to a RF post).
One of mine. |
