This Hermès-signed Ref. 5922 will be auctioned at Sotheby’s in Geneva this November:
https://www.sothebys.com/en/buy/auc...rmes-compax-reference-5922-a-yellow?locale=en

It last sold for 39k CHF at Phillips back in 2015:
https://www.phillips.com/detail/UNIVERSAL/CH080515/236

Will be interesting to see what it fetches this time around.

Quite possibly a Contax… 630122 serial.

Interesting to see these case back marking with the sort of sun in it. My talisman has a somewhat similar signature although it doesn't contain the same letters. It is also not Hermes signed. But it was imported into France judging by the owl import mark.
The serial numbers also seem to be hand engraved on both of them. Although clearly not by the same person.

I wonder whether mine was sold by Hermes or some other French retailer.

I'm sure it's exquisite but this was the first thing that came to mind.

Poor pic, nothing about a reference or serial and - of course - not on the site yet. 100% Paris style...

Not Hermes - I’ve ask for photos. Compur 30 on the dial at 6
