✨ DuBois et Fils Musée Edition | Solid 18K Gold | Valjoux 7751 Full Complication ✨

Description:

A rare opportunity to acquire a DuBois et Fils “Musée Edition” wristwatch in solid 18K yellow gold (case + back) — not just a timepiece, but a valuable investment in both horology and precious metal. With today’s surging gold prices, the intrinsic value of this watch’s heavy case alone makes it a secure store of wealth, while its rarity and sophistication ensure collectible desirability far beyond gold content.

At its core lies the iconic Valjoux 7751 automatic movement, one of the most complication-rich calibers in Swiss watchmaking. Few wristwatches unite this many classical features in one elegant case.

• Day & Month windows at 12 o’clock, integrated with the 30-minute chronograph counter

• 24-hour AM/PM subdial at 9 o’clock
• 12-hour chronograph counter & moonphase together at 6 o’clock
