Well I’ve got news for you: mine is 166 as well
Other font for the reference though

These are all beauties for sure, your watch especially 😎

I should've been clearer. What I, and I think @bgrisso, were saying, was that we have never seen this specific signature HJ faceted chunky lug case appear outside of early 40s chronos. It's really cool to see this famous case on a simple time only piece.

That piece was previously sold by Avocado Vintage Watches (https://www.instagram.com/p/CdFsZjCMUTl/) and before that by Kaplans Auctioneers.

Dial is certainly original.

Interesting GP. Too bad they can't be bothered to post movement pics. I have seen a similar commodore stamp before I think. Ref 22405. https://kibblewatches.co.uk/products/1940s-girard-perregaux-chronograph-ug-cal-285

@mark20 …putting the BS stamp on folks claiming that all the good stuff is locked up in safes.

This is another thing I find confusing about our ongoing HPC research, if it's a higher grade time keeping designation, why would it be on a plated case? It seems like the kind of thing you would have with your more expensive offerings.

Exactly, B. The Spanish day wheel here isn’t hurting your HPC theory either 👍
