This specific reference is valued for its manual-wind Caliber 1978 movement and its adherence to the original 1967 asymmetric case dimensions, measuring approximately 43mm by 25mm. The dial features classic Roman numerals and a \"London\" signature, distinguishing it from later Swiss-made \"Paris\" or \"Swiss\" marked editions. Production numbers for this reference were extremely limited, often estimated at fewer than 400 units across its production run. On the secondary market, this reference typically commands prices in the mid-to-high six-figure range. A notable auction result occurred in 2022 when a 1991 London Crash sold for over $1.5 million, reflecting the high demand for vintage-specification models compared to modern skeletonized or platinum variants.", "score": 199}]}
