WHY WE LOVE IT
–
Here’s something you don’t see every day.
Once upon a time, it was common for watch companies to allow their dials to be double-signed with the name of a corresponding retailer. (A Tiffany-signed Rolex, for example, or a Bucherer-signed Patek.) This practice, though still ongoing in certain cases, is rare nowadays, making vintage, double-signed watches into a niche, highly collective sub-category of horology.
What we have here is a particularly notable double-signed dress watch. Manufactured by one of Switzerland’s finest watchmakers, Audemars Piguet, it was retailed by one of America’s finest jewelers, Betteridge. (Established in 1897, Betteridge once had multiple locations in New York City and Miami, and since 1952, has been headquartered in Greenwich, Connecticut.)
Featuring a 32mm, 18K yellow gold snap-back case, a satin, champagne-toned non-luminous dial, applied indices, a cabochon winding crown, a sapphire crystal and, of course, its double signature, it’s fitted to a black lizard strap with signed, 18K gold pin buckle and is powered by the manually-wound AP Calibre 2003/1 movement.
Double-signed vintage watches are wildly collectible and often, wildly expensive. Make this sleeper piece your dress watch before anyone is the wiser!
OVERALL CONDITION
The case is in excellent condition overall showing only light signs of wear consistent with age and use. Champagne dial with applied indices is in equally excellent condition with matching faceted 'dauphine' handset. Cabochon crown.
