| This master clock is one of a very few bearing the signatures of both Patek Philippe
and Rolex. The clock is entirely made by Patek Philippe, the case is decorated with
the Rolex livery and the case and dial bear the Rolex name. The mottled green color
scheme of the case can be found on several other models of Rolex display clocks
dating from the 1950s & 60s. |
