[isdntekvideo] This watch is one of a kind.
It has been awarded personally by Tsar Nicholas II to General Nikolai Nikolaevich Yanushkevich(1868-1918). He served as Chief of Staff of the General Headquarters(Stavka) of the Imperial army.
The watch comes from his family estate.

The watch has a solid 18k rose/red gold case depicting the personal cypher monogram of Tsar Nicholas II decorated with 2ct genuine old Rose Cut Diamonds and a Ruby precious stone.

It is a very very important set  with significant historical value!

The watch comes with an APPRAISAL CERTIFICATE FOR $55000!

 

The watch is preserved in near mint condition!


It comes with the original Patek Philippe luxury morocco leather presentation box.



This is the most precision Patek Philippe chronometer calibre ever made!

It was been Observatory approved and tested.

Few basic requirements were requested by  to distinguish the Gondolo

watches from those made for Patek Philippe’s regular production. Firstly, the

watches were made with gilded brass plates and featured the elegant S-

shaped fourth wheel patented by Patek Philippe on 13 January 1893. The S-

shaped minute train bridge is now considered one of the company’s hallmark

designs. Secondly, a Swiss moustache lever escapement with bi-metallic

compensation balance featured on each watch to meet high precision

standards. Thirdly, the fourth, intermediate and minute wheels of each watch

were made in 9k rose gold. Forth, a square socket was necessary in each of

the mainspring barrels.Also the watches should have a maximum  21

rubis,Wolf teeth winding gear,special Patek Philippe patented snail precision

micrometric regulator ,big bycolor(bymetal) compensating balance wheel with

gold screws,and of course the watch should be observatory tested to position

and temperature.

The watch has a special 24h dial.

A real 24 hour dial watch only has 24 hour dial notation on the dial. That

means that the movement has to be altered so that the hour hand doesn't go

in 360 degrees around the dial in 12 hours, but rather in 24 hours. The hour

hand, in my example, would only show 1900 hours. You'd know for sure that

it was early evening.

Conventional 12 hour watches have a "motion work" involving a 12 to 1

reduction in the gear train from the minute hand. 24 hour watches have a

different gearing, with a 24 to 1 reduction. To be very technical, "the motion

work is the small 12-to-1 (or here a 24-to-1) reduction gear train that turns the

timepiece's hour hand from the minute hand. It is attached to the going train

by the friction coupling of the cannon pinion, so the minute and hour hands

can be turned independently to set the timepiece. It is often located on the

outside of the movement's front plate, just under the dial.


Because of this, these watches are the most wanted by collectors...

Perfect working order! Keeping exact time!

 

This is much more than a pocket watch-this is a piece of the history.

The watch is 48mm,92g heavy.
