The bada emerald 3940 has always been regarded as one of the most popular beda emerald's complex functional watches and the ultimate collection target of countless tibetans around the world. It is a great honour for us to present a series of six unusual models, 3940 wristwatches, some of which are the rarest of the works known to exist, in hong kong spring, which will take place on may 27-28. Such a shock is rare in the history of auctions; for tibetans, it is absolutely a golden opportunity to hide this landmark masterpiece。
The model, 3940, was born in 1985 and ceased production until 2007, taking a prominent place in the modern history of the emerald. Philippe stern, then managing director of the company, also chose to use this model as his daily worn wristwatch, adding to the reputation of model 3940. It is no doubt one of the greatest classics in the history of the jade. The model 3940 carries the 240-q core with a 22k gold mini-automatic disk, the world's thintest automatic one-year wristwatch, which does not require manual adjustments for 100 years. This model can be divided into three generations。

Distinguished and only known to date, the 18k gold automatically carries a thousand-year calendar, a moon, a year display and a german calendar, sold by beyer, model 3940j, no. 1, 1986, with two certificates of credit
Valuation: hk$ 1,500 000 - 3,000 000
The auction presented three generations of the model, including three extremely rare first-generation wristwatches. The first generation, 3940, was characterized by the display of 24 hours and years on a tablet and sink-style support disk, while the subsequent series added crosses to the disc to divide the four areas。
Two more world-class rare treasures of the three first generation of 3940 this season. One is a gold model 3940j with a rare gold disc and a retailer's trademark “beyer”. Two years after the introduction of the 225th anniversary version of “beyer”, this table is the only example known。
For senior tibetans, the first generation of 3940, marked with the symbol “beyer”, is absolutely significant. According to information, of the first 100 or so first generation 3940 wristwatches produced between 1984 and 1985, the first 25 were chro, a zurich retailerIt's the 225th anniversary of the establishment of the nometrie beyer, especially foundry. The wristwatch displays a separate number at the bottom of the window and a personalized contribution on the back。
However, this is not part of the 25 commemorative versions, but the only one currently known to have the “beyer” logo, but not the number or inscription, is the first generation 3940. This orphan was not manufactured in the early stages of production, as in the beyer anniversary, but in the end of the first generation series. In addition, the sheet uses more rare and incisive gold, rather than milk white, which is used in most of the first-generation wrist tables (except for the beyer special edition); its calendar is shown in german, which is reasonable for the time taken for the beyer local market。
This remarkable wristwatch is undoubtedly one of the most important and critical works of the first generation model 3940. For the tibetans, it is a dream and the ultimate symbol of the glory of the "new antiques" of the beads。

The first generation of platinum 3940 has almost mythical status in the minds of the emerald emerald lovers; in its 22-year production history of model 3940, it is absolutely the ultimate fantasy. The auction may be the only precious opportunity to buy this bead's legend。
