Throughout the mid-twentieth century, it was common for prestigious retailers like Gübelin to commission watches from renowned manufactures, including the likes of Patek Philippe, Longines, Universal Genève, and others. While many of these pieces featured an additional retailer stamp on the dial of an otherwise \u003cem\u003eordinary\u003c\/em\u003e timepiece, they also sold watches that took things one step further. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe piece that we have here is one such example, with a case, movement, and of course, dial all signed Gübelin, and \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eGübelin only. The case measures a nice and traditional 33mm in diameter, with a yellow gold winding crown, an 'oval' pusher, and a snapback design. The lugs have an elegant profile with a gentle downturn and remain nice and symmetrical. The dial inside is gorgeous, rich glossy black with gold printing throughout and a matching gold 'sword' handset. Powering this piece is a manual-winding monopusher movement from Valjoux.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs it pertains to vintage collecting, this checks a heck of a lot of boxes. The interesting story, legendary movement, and outright rarity, make for one hell of recipe. And thats before considering that potent combination of a deep black dial with a yellow gold case...\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oliver \u0026 Clarke","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51887926870333,"sku":"OC3166","price":6850.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0765\/6138\/3741\/files\/GUBELIN_CHRONO_BLK_STRAP_WEB_1.jpg?v=1782865079","url":"https:\/\/oliverandclarke.com\/products\/gubelin-monopusher-chronograph-18k-gloss-black-dial","provider":"Oliver \u0026 Clarke Vintage Watches","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
