拍品的状况可能存在极大差异，而由于其性质使然，拍品难以处于完美无瑕的状态。拍品均以拍卖时的状况出售。

The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.

Movement: The movement is running at the time of cataloging, consistent with the age of the watch. The movement has not been tested for accuracy. A service is recommended given the age of the watch.
Dial: The dial has light scratches, wear and debris. The hands have some oxidation.
Case: The case has light to moderate scratches with aging at the metal. The solar panel has some spotting. The back of the case has a personal engraving from Henri Stern and Patek Philippe executives to Jean R. Graef.
Overall Condition: Good

1. All lots are sold "AS IS", and this condition report is provided purely as a goodwill service and may not specify all mechanical replacements or defects. The absence of any reference to the condition of a lot does not imply that the lot is in good condition and without defects, repairs or restoration. You are accordingly encouraged to view the lots personally or through your own professional advisor.

2. For further information on these issues, please refer to the terms and conditions.

We thank you for your interest in the forthcoming sale. We remind you again that all property is sold “as is” and should be viewed personally by you or by your professional advisor before the sale to assess its condition.

Please note that Christie’s has applied for an “Extract from the Archives” from Patek Philippe, but the extract has not yet been issued and may not be available by the date of the auction. The lot is sold “as is” without any extract and Christie’s does not guarantee that Patek Philippe will issue the extract.
