圖錄文章
Reference 2406 is distinguished by its elegant elongated lugs. Launched in 1945, the watch boasted a 35mm case, which was considerably large for the period. The present watch is an exceedingly rare example, as it is fitted with a pink dial, which has been preserved in excellent condition. The markers have slightly oxidized, giving this timepiece a lot of character. The case has furthermore developed a layer of rosy patina over time, with a crisp hallmark punched on the side of the lug.

Traditional and conservative designs are found across Patek Philippe's watches made throughout their history — the utmost in understated elegance.Well-known for the Graves Supercomplication — a highly complicated pocket watch that was the world’s most complicated watch for 50 years — this family-owned brand has earned a reputation of excellence around the world. Patek's complicated vintage watches hold the highest number of world records for results achieved at auction compared with any other brand. For collectors, key models include the reference 1518, the world's first serially produced perpetual calendar chronograph, and its successor, the reference 2499. Other famous models include perpetual calendars such as the ref. 1526, ref. 3448 and 3450, chronographs such as the reference 130, 530 and 1463, as well as reference 1436 and 1563 split seconds chronographs. Patek is also well-known for their classically styled, time-only "Calatrava" dress watches, and the "Nautilus," an iconic luxury sports watch first introduced in 1976 as the reference 3700 that is still in production today.
