The present reference 600/3 is a stunning example of craftsmanship. This exquisite piece was produced around the 1950s, with its case manufactured by E. Vichet, as designated by the case maker's key no.9 stamp on the inside case back. The exquisite silvered dial, adorned with 8 diamonds and 3 baguette-set hour markers, sets it apart, adding an elevated elegance to its overall design. The presence of the Hausmann signature on the pocket watch dial further enhances its desirability and transforms rarity into extraordinary. Hausmann & Co., founded in Rome in 1794 by Ernst Hausmann and Hermann Frielingsdorf, is one of Italy's most prominent retailers of Patek Philippe watches. Even today, Hausmann & Co. operates a Patek Philippe boutique on Rome's prestigious Via dei Condotti. To the best of our knowledge, only 7 examples of reference 600/3 have appeared on the public auction market to date, and this is one of only 2 examples with a Hausmann signed dial.
