This understated model was produced in a limited edition of 80 pieces especially created for the Patek Philippe London Grand Exhibition. These exclusive pieces were only available at the London Patek Philippe boutique for long-established clients.

This elegant piece differs from the standard reference 7200 by its silvered dial with black painted Breguet numerals and hands with outer minute track whereas the traditional version has applied pink gold Breguet numerals, pear hands and pearled minute markers. 

This lot is in immaculate, unworn condition and is still preserved in its double sealed factory packaging.

To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time this watch has been presented at auction.
