Quick TakeImagine a symphony of horological artistry brought to life– that's the Patek Philippe Pocket Watch Reference 973J. Its gleam of yellow gold and crisp white dial whisper of timeless refinement. Beneath the surface pulses a manual-winding heart, a testament to enduring watchmaking traditions. The seconds subdial adds a touch of modern utility to a classic design. This isn't just a watch, it's a conversation piece, an heirloom whispering tales of precision and elegance for generations.

DescriptionThe Patek Philippe Pocket Watch Open Face Reference 973J embodies the pinnacle of traditional watchmaking. Its 18k yellow gold case, measuring 44mm in diameter, offers a classic aesthetic and substantial presence. The white lacquered dial features striking applied gold numerals for exceptional legibility. This exquisite display of timekeeping mastery is protected by a sapphire crystal renowned for its scratch-resistant properties.

At the heart of this timepiece lies the caliber 17''' LEP PS, a meticulously crafted manual-winding movement. Comprising 137 components, 18 jewels, and seven bridges, this intricate engine assures reliable timekeeping with a 50-hour power reserve. The plain balance with screws and Breguet balance spring operate at a frequency of 18,000 semi-oscillations per hour (2.5 Hz), guaranteeing precision. The case, while humidity and dust resistant, emphasizes the importance of careful handling as it is not designed for water resistance.
