A vintage Komet Esquinas Santos watch in pink gold plated top (10 microns) and steel case back, crafted during the 1950s. The 38 mm unpolished case houses pronounced flared lugs, 4 rectangular pushers (two on each side) individually advances its own time zone and is powered by a hand wound movement. It features a silvered two-tone dial with large pink gold-colored Arabic at the quarter-hours, gold tapered hands accented with a central red seconds hand pointing to the outer minute track, and 4 oversized subsidiary 24-hour registers. Fitted with a handmade saddle leather strap, this relatively obscure travel timepiece by Komet is cool in its sporty appearance. The words written on the sub dials “Esquinas Tantos” meaning “many corners” in Spanish, apropos for the avid jetsetter.
