Re: New from John Cote
In Response To: Re: New from John Cote ()

Stewart,

I bought this one out of the collection of a late friend of mine. Dr. Heilman is the same guy who sold me the little Vacheron pocket watch I put in my "Top Three" list a while back. I have no idea how long Doc had owned it but he may have bought it new in the '70s. It is still, except for a few surface scratches, almost new.

As I wear it and look at it more I have noticed that the black minute counter sub dial is slightly larger than the running seconds sub. This asymmetry gives the dial a really great look.

Best,

JohnCote
