Description
18K pink gold Patek Philippe ref. 2423. Affectionately nicknamed “Vichingo” by Italian collectors and part of the renowned “Forma” group of sculptural timepieces, this watch immediately captivates at first sight. Its case design is a true work of art — a masterful blend of bold geometry and refined elegance. The warm tones of the pink gold enhance its sculptural presence, making it a striking and distinguished piece on the wrist. The case remains in very good condition for a 1950s example, with well-defined shapes, sharp angles, and clearly visible hallmarks. The dial, likely cleaned in the past, retains its charm, with beautifully preserved enameled graphics that remain thick and crisp. Powered by a manual-winding Caliber 10 movement, this timepiece is fitted with a leather strap and comes with an Extract from the Archives that confirms its provenance. A rare opportunity for enthusiasts of distinctive mid-century design — this is a watch of strong personality, sculptural beauty, and unmistakable presence.
