Ref. 5512: An excellent example of an early 5512, this particular watch is characterized by its irregular shaped coronet, hence its name. Made for a very short period of time, this watch has a truly impressive look with its greenish lume and faded bezel. This particular example has a beautiful dial that is very glossy and has very little surface wear.
