I believe Altesse is the name of the model rather than the name of a retailer.

Hi,
Are you sure? From what I’ve heard, it was a jeweler in France, but I may be wrong

Yes, I'm a bit pushed for time right now but a quick online search will bring up lots of similar Altesse watches as well as some catalogue pics and advertising all showing the Altesse models.

Interesting double signed compax. Havent seen too many signatures on the subdial before but looks legit as there isnt any room on this dial to put the signature elsewhere.

I'm obsessed with this one. I love the 22295 reference, and the condition is great other than the replacement crown.

I saw this one too...it's very good me thinks.

Didn't think the crown was a replacement but don't know enough.

Direct link to sellers site if someone is interested. I was very tempted to make the move but deep down, what I really, really want is a Tri-Compax.

Not a retailer I've heard of before I'll be honest.
Everything I can find online in connection with them dates to the late 30s/early 40s, which I guess explains why.

Wonderful GP in Black, Starr & Gorham disguise (and this is one of the IG'ers to follow. Insane collection)
