View Vintage Dufonte by Lucien Piccard Ladies 17J Swiss Watch Original Box Tag AS IS with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. Dr.SUNSHINE and TI. A Little History of Phil’s Watch Clinic. Off she goes — untested, impeccably accessorized, and still carrying her own luggage. Charming vintage Dufonte by Lucien Piccard ladies’ Swiss wristwatch, apparently dating from the 1970s , with petite sculptural gold-tone case, white dial, applied gold-tone numerals and matching bracelet. Case back is signed “DUFONTE by LUCIEN PICCARD” and “GILT-RON BASE METAL.” Particularly nice as a surviving presentation set: the watch comes with its Dufonte/Lucien Piccard box and hang tag marked Style 6001 , with an original printed price of $52.50 . Untested and offered as found. Dr.SUNSHINE and TI.. PWC FAREWELL NOTE She checked into the Clinic with her original box, her old price tag and enough documentation to suggest she expected preferential treatment. We explained that seniority does not include complimentary surgery. She declined examination, adjusted her tiny gold bracelet and requested immediate discharge. Off she goes — untested, impeccably accessorized, and still carrying her own luggage. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A Little History of Phil’s Watch Clinic Hi, my name is Phil, I was a passionate watch enthusiast with a particular affection for unusual and understated timepieces, mostly of Swiss and American origin. In 2001, that passion became my own little private workshop, which I proudly named Phil’s Watch Clinic.The Clinic eventually developed several unofficial departments—patients waiting for treatment, restoration candidates, spare parts, organ donors, and quite a few mysterious cases whose medical histories had been lost somewhere along the way. Sadly, I passed away in 2019, leaving behind the Clinic—and considerably more patients than anyone realized.Today, my witty widow, Madam Ti, together with her rather unconventional associate, Dr. Sunshine, has taken over the ward. They examine what can reasonably be examined, photograph everything carefully, make no promises they cannot prove, and occasionally discover that the patients have no insurance whatsoever. After many years in my care, it is finally time for them to leave the Clinic and find new homes. Condition: Pre-owned - Good.
