Patek Philippe

Calatrava Jumbo

A very attractive and rare, unpolished vintage Geneva wristwatch with centre seconds and applied Roman gold numerals and indexes

Sold

Patek Philippe's reference 2481 features a large case with a concave bezel and faceted, down-turned lugs. With a diameter of 36 mm, it was unusually large at the time of its creation, giving it a modern presence on the wrist without losing any of its classic appeal.
This example is a beautiful gold vintage watch with blue central seconds and applied Roman numerals, as well as dotted hour markers. The condition is stunning and all parts are original. The case edges are crisp and the dial is untouched. Inside is the hand-wound calibre 27SC, a great movement that Patek Philippe used for over 30 years, known for its reliability and accuracy.
