Q: What is a Pyramid dial? A: The Pyramid dial features a distinct, textured geometric pattern that adds depth and character to the face of the watch. It is less common than standard sunburst dials, making this timepiece a unique find for collectors.
Q: Does this model have a sapphire crystal? A: Yes. The Reference 16233 is fitted with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with a Cyclops lens for date magnification. This offers superior durability compared to the acrylic crystals found on older vintage models.
Q: Will the watch fit my wrist? A: This specific timepiece fits a wrist circumference of up to 17.5cm. The Jubilee bracelet offers a comfortable fit, and links can be removed for a smaller size. Please note that no extra links are included with this purchase.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
