Lot Essay

With Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the present watch with laped gold hour markers in 1955 and its subsequent sale on 29 January 1957. Furthermore delivered with Patek Philippe and Freccero fitted presentation box.

The present reference 2545 has never been offered in public before and is preserved in remarkably good condition.

Ref 2545 is the waterproof counterpart of the famed Calatrava ref. 96, differing from it for the increased size and screw back. One of Patek's rarest references, it is known to be produced in yellow, pink and white gold. This far, only slightly more than 10 examples of pink 2545 came back to the market.
