I came across one of those deals on another forum that I could not pass up. I had once owned the 3 hand version of this watch and sold it and have regretted doing so ever since. While searching the for sale posts as I normally do, I came across the Chrono version and I jumped all over it. This is the Philip Swan Auotmatic Chronograph. It is a 42mm size and once again, due to the smaller bezel, it plays larger, like a 44mm. It has a white dial and the hands, numbers and markers are in a gold-tone. Nice leather strap and deployant clasp. It was accompanied by a SS solid link and end-link bracelet. Love this watch! When the "BELL TOLLS"................................I listen Very Happy

OOoooooo Nice John.

Love that strap and the golden hands/markers - all class.
Really wish I could have gotten in on the Admirale (47mm of course).
There may still be another Philip in my future should the right opportunity come along.
Enjoy

I'm glad you were able to get this watch back John ! Still Waiting For Watch #3, In The Meantime........................ 803574 It may not
be the 3-hand that you had originally had, but it still IS a winner !!!
Stunning case, and dial, and those hands along with numbers almost
look like they are on fire ! Still Waiting For Watch #3, In The Meantime........................ Icon_smile There is also alot of detail with the case-
back, and movement as well !..Yowza !!! REALLY liking the Philip logo
on the rotor there. They did a PHENOMENAL job with this watch imho.
It's great that you have a nice bracelet, as well as strap along with
this one too ! Congratulations, and ENJOY sir !..Amazing photos by
the way !

Whaddup JOHN!

Everyone knows I am not a big chrono fan but I have to admit, that one looks really cool!

I think the contrast of the gold numbers and sub-dials looks AWESOME against the white dial!

Great pics man!

ENJOY!
