Khaki Smoked Gradient Dial
El Primero A385 — Khaki Smoked Gradient Dial
Undated
Khaki-toned smoked dial that lightens toward the centre, with pale chronograph registers and a red central hand. The auctioned specimen shows patina and a previously polished case.
Auction dates the specimen circa 1971 and records a bracelet stamped second quarter 1972. These dates describe the lot and bracelet, not the execution’s full production span.
