(157) EARLY GOLD PATEK LÉPINE WITH QUARTER REPEATER Case back engraved with a central coat of arms featuring a crescent moon and star surmounted by a crown with foliage, a fluted Breguet-style center section, and a Soviet silver hallmark (14K). Engraved bezel. Dust cover engraved in Polish: "Patek et Tasapek, w Grenewie, Wychwyt Podwoyny, Walec Podnoszenie I Pietmas cie Czopow w Rubinach, Rownacz podwoyny nr. 654". Dial: White enamel, cracked, with Roman numerals. Hands: Gilt brass, fleur-de-lis style; lever/slide activation. Movement: Quarter-repeater striking on bells; silver-plated and engine-turned (guilloché) movement plate; duplex escapement; flat regulator; monometallic balance; key or bow wind; crown-set hands. The watch needs to be restored. Dia.: 46.2 mm, H: 12.2 mm, Wt.: 79 g In his expert assessment from the 1990s, Prof. André Curtit wrote: The enamel dial has replaced the original, which was silver-plated and engraved. A distinctive feature is the winding system—operated via the bow—which is one of the earliest examples, as it winds in only one direction. The balance wheel is not original to the piece. This watch is highly interesting, as it is listed among the first series of Patek timepieces.
