The 1862 hammer band sits in the GBP 3,000–7,500 range for typical 9K Glasgow-imported examples and reaches CHF 11,875 for the 1935 9K + steel two-tone with three-tone dial — an order of magnitude below the 1490's CHF 62,500 Beyer-double-signed Phillips ceiling. The discount reflects the 1862's lower period prestige (no Brancard premium, less period advertising) rather than any difference in movement grade or chronometer testing rigour. A chronometer-grade Ultra Prima 1862 carries the same Aegler movement architecture as a chronometer-grade Ultra Prima 1490 — the case shape and the period marketing diverge, the watchmaking does not.
