This reference is significant to collectors as it bridged the gap between vintage aesthetics and modern specifications, introducing the sapphire crystal bezel insert that became a brand standard. The 40.3mm stainless steel case houses the automatic Calibre 1151, offering a 100-hour power reserve. The dial features a date window at 4:30 and \"71\" style metal bracelet or rubber strap options. On the secondary market, these watches typically trade between $25,000 and $35,000 depending on set completeness. A notable production detail is the division into Series I, II, and III, which were allocated to the Asian, European, and American markets respectively, though the technical specifications across all three series remain identical.", "score": 200}]}
