Wearing This Bauhaus-inspired Patek Philippe Calatrava ref. 2526 and experiencing it up close allows one to truly appreciate the nuances of this model.
The subtle sensation of the gold rotor spinning on the wrist serves as a constant reminder of the micro-mechanical genius at work throughout the day.
Pair this with the luxurious, brand-new Patek chocolate brown crocodile strap and an 18k gold “Classic” Patek Philippe buckle, and the high-end vintage experience is complete.
Another notable detail of this ref. 2526 is the typical vintage and original 18k winding crown, featuring a "PP" logo cut in relief—a distinctive stylized logo used on the crown for the first time.
The weight of the 18k Yellow gold relatively heavy handmade case on the wrist is a testament to quality that is both visible, tangible and in fantastic condition.
The original enamel dial, which was highly prone to cracking, was replaced by Patek Philippe in the 1970s with this much stronger and more durable dial, so that’s a worry less for the new owner.
This Great Preserved Vintage Patek comes as a Complete set, with the Patek Philippe box and the Extract from the Patek Philippe Archives confirming the date of sale March 18th 1958.
If you would like photos or a video of a specific part of the watch, we are happy to send them to you.
