Pre-owned Gold Watch In Yellow

Description This absolutely spectacular Patek Philippe Flame Lugs 2431 dates from the early 1950s. The so-called flame lugs create an extraordinary look and make the watch a real eye-catcher. The reference 2431 was introduced around 1948 and was only produced for a few years. This 18-karat yellow gold case is undoubtedly one of Patek Philippe's most imposing creations. At the same time, the watch offers timeless elegance thanks to the silver dial with small seconds at 6 o'clock, fine gold ""leaf"" hands and gold indexes. This Patek Philippe Calatrava is an extremely valuable collectible watch. Not only because of its absolutely impressive state of conservation given its advanced age of more than 70 years. But also thanks to the certificate of origin with a movement number stamped with the year of sale.
