1953 PATEK PHILIPPE Vintage Ladies Hooded Lug Watch - 18K Gold
Very Fine & Rare - Fabulous Design - 1 Year Warranty
We are proud to offer today this very fine and fabulously styled mid-century era ladies Patek Philippe.
With its understated silver face and wonderfully distinctive case with hooded lugs, it showcases a classic and elegant vintage Patek style. Our photos couldn't quite capture the subtleties of the sides of the distinctive case.
Powering the watch is its illustrious handwound movement, unquestionably among the finest hand-winding ladies movements ever built.
It has all of its original parts and presents in excellent condition.
Its case presents as better than near mint with only fairly light signs of previous polishing. It retains a crisp hallmark.
Its silver dial is bright and clean, well-restored in vintage times. And its movement is very clean.
Two of our Master Watchmakers teamed together for nearly three years to breathe new life into the movement which consisted of fully disassembling the movement, carefully inspecting each part, replacing any overly worn components with correct Patek replacements including the minute wheel, clutch wheel, stem, and mainspring, reassembling and lubricating the movement, and extensive timing testing and regulation (a $2895 value). Our loss is your gain.
We have also timed it on a machine that simulates it being worn on the wrist. It is keeping very accurate time.
For the finishing touch, we have equipped it with a brand new leather strap making it ready for immediate enjoyment.
Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. international warranty on the movement and its function and a full-page custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity.
Please inquire if you would like us to obtain an Extract from the Patek Philippe Archives. Patek charges 550 CHF.
Your watch is important to us, and we will take care of it for its lifetime. We provide the best after sale care in the business with an extremely experienced team of four Master Watchmakers all of whom each have over thirty-five years of experience and a large number of parts. One used to be the watchmaker for an authorized Rolex dealership and was given training by Rolex at their Beverly Hills Service Center.

Patek Philippe
It shouldn’t be surprising that a Patek Philippe holds the world auction record for a watch ($31.2 million for a Patek Grandmaster Chime, sold at Christie’s). Known for impeccable craftsmanship and some of the most complicated timepieces ever created, the brand is considered by many to be the height of fine watchmaking. Collectors simply love Patek Philippe watches.
The house was founded in Geneva in 1839 by Polish expats Antoni Patek and Franciszek Czapek. Czapek left the firm, and in 1845, Patek partnered with French watchmaker Jean Adrien Philippe. It was the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
Catering to the glitterati of Europe, the pair counted among their clients Tolstoy, Pope Pius IX and Queen Victoria, as well as Countess Koscowicz of Hungary, for whom they created the first Swiss-made wristwatch in 1868. They also had their eye on the American market and in 1851 entered an arrangement with Tiffany & Co. still in effect today.
During the Great Depression, brothers Jean and Charles Stern, who had previously supplied Patek Philippe with watch dials, bought the company, and it continues to be run by the Stern family today.
Under the Sterns, the house has developed some of its most famous models, including the Calatrava, an elegantly minimal dress watch introduced in 1932 and named for the Calatrava Cross (the company’s logo since 1887), and the Nautilus, the brand’s first sports watch, conceived by legendary designer Gérald Genta in 1976.
Despite the house’s longevity, it’s rumored that it has manufactured fewer than a million Patek watches, making each one all the more coveted. (The brand's pieces are understandably attractive to counterfeiters — make sure you know how to spot a fake Patek Philippe watch.)
