From The Curator
This very reference was the world’s first “blacked-out” PVD timepiece, designed by the visionary behind the Porsche 911. Famously worn by Maverick in Top Gun, this Ref. 7176s features a 41mm tonneau case housing the legendary Lemania 5100 automatic movement. With its matte black tritium dial and matching PVD H-link bracelet, it is an aggressive masterclass in functional design and a rare piece of cinematic history.
And of course, it comes complete with a certificate of authenticity and appraisal and is shipped carefully and fully insured.
