    • Catalogue Essay

      Fresh to the market and incredibly well-preserved, the present timepiece is only the second known stainless steel reference 565 retailed by Asprey to come to the market.

      In fact the present example bears case number 663’177 only one number apart (663’178) from the example sold for CHF 300,000 at the Phillips “Double Signed” auction in Geneva on Nov 9, 2019.
      Other than the watch’s condition and rare Asprey signature other worthy elements add an element of desirability to the watch such as the Breguet numerals and luminous dots – as confirmed by the Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives.

      The reference 565 is one of the most classic gentleman wristwatches of the 20th century. Released in 1938, the model featured innovative and enduring qualities that today make it a collector’s favorite. These including the two piece Taubert case with screw down back, an inner soft iron cover to protect the movement from the adverse effects of magnetic fields, and a more generous case, compared to the smaller reference 96, which was first released in 1932.

      The brand continued to manufacture the model until 1952, and in an era when yellow gold timepieces were de rigueur, most examples were made in yellow gold, with fewer examples in pink gold and rarely in stainless steel. Designed for a public with a growing interest in outdoor activities, the reference 565 was waterproof with its screw-down caseback.

      Offered with subsidiary seconds or less frequently, with center seconds, over the course of time the caliber was upgraded. First series examples of the reference housed the caliber 12’’’120, while a Victorin Piguet indirect center seconds movement 12-120 SC was introduced in 1939, in 1950 a second series was released with the caliber 12’’’400, as well as the new caliber 27 SC (center seconds).

      Rare and in impressive condition the present reference 565 retailed by Asprey is an exceptionally rare discovery.
