Patek Philippe Genève, "Calatrava", Movement No. 721839, Case No. 675196, Ref. 2532, Cal. 12-400, 34 mm, circa 1952
An elegant Geneva wristwatch with auxiliary seconds
Case: 18k gold, screw back, anti-magnetic protection cap, 18k gold buckle. Dial: silvered.
Reference 2532 was introduced in 1952 to replace the more widely known reference 565; production was discontinued in 1956 and only around 200 timepieces were produced during those four years.
This watch is in exceptionally good condition and has a particularly elegant appearance due to the combination of the matte case and a polished bezel. The silvered dial with applied, beveled indexed has aquired a gentle patina. The black enamel "Patek Philippe Genève" logo as well as all the scales are still clearly raised. The cone markers of the outer "Perlé" minute ring also remain clearly visible.
