Sophisticated and elegant, Patek Philippe’s reference 96 is the perfect example of a timeless design.
First manufactured in 1932, this model, with its long downturned lugs and large flat bezel, remains relevant over 80 years later.
In production until 1973, the reference 96 is a stalwart in Patek Philippe’s collection. It is the first Calatrava model that Patek Philippe ever produced, ushering in a new era for both the firm and the dress wristwatch. It defined the Calatrava “style”while also being the first model to introduce numbered references to Patek Philippe’s timepieces.
Throughout its production cycle, many variations were made, with a diverse range of dials that collectors until today enjoy discovering. Especially sought after are those with Breguet numerals such as the present example.
In overall very attractive condition, the present lot will appeal to the collector interested in minimalistic designs.
