Patek Philippe reference 1526 is a historically important timepiece, in production from 1940 to 1952, this timepiece combines elegance, calatrava-style case and a minimalist and clean dial considered to be ahead of its time. Such is the appreciation of this watch that this reference has been used as benchmark for what classic perpetual calendar timepieces should truly look like.
Furthermore, reference 1526 was the first serially produced perpetual calendar wristwatch, in production for only a few years it is estimated that only 210 examples are known, with a sole exception in stainless steel, the majority of the examples are predominantly in yellow gold and a fraction in pink gold.
The simplicity of the “Calatrava” style case and serene silver dial is counterbalanced by the magnificently hand decorated movement that mechanically calculates the length of each month throughout the year, whilst also accounting for leap years.
