Description
18K pink gold Patek Philippe Calatrava ref. 2551 “Disco Volante”. An attractive example of the sought-after self-winding Patek Philippe Calatrava reference 2551 from 1957. Featuring the desirable 36 mm pink-gold case, the iconic double-P winding crown, and an original dial aged with a wonderfully warm patina, this piece has all the ingredients of a true mid-century treasure. Although worn and polished over the decades, the case remains in good overall condition, retaining its original shape and presence. The dial is particularly charming: its even patina harmonizes beautifully with the pink-gold hour markers and dauphine hands, while the crisp enamel printing remains fully original and exceptionally well preserved. Powered by the legendary self-winding calibre 12-600 AT—one of Patek Philippe’s most celebrated automatic movements—this reference pairs technical pedigree with timeless refinement. Offered on a leather strap, it is accompanied by its Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production in 1957. Exceptionally elegant and full of character, this ref. 2551 radiates vintage charm and classical design—a piece that will thrill any discerning collector the moment it’s on the wrist.
