Vintage Patek Philippe Ref. 2424R flame-shaped Manual-winding Wristwatch from 1950.
This vintage piece is a pink-on-pink, tank wristwatch with Stern Freres pinkish-silver dial, rose gold hands denoting time with rose gold fancy and dot hour markers. Small seconds sit at 6 o’clock. Engraved-enamelled peripheral minutes scale, seconds dial and signature in black. A calibre 10-200 sits in the 18K rose gold, two-piece body completed with snap-back case. At 32mm, this piece was considered an oversized watch but will sit perfectly on the wrist of ladies and men today. An extract of Archives dated 2007 confirms that this piece was made and sold in 1950.

Launched in 1946, the Reference 2424 was produced only in small numbers until at least 1952 in yellow gold, rose hold and platinum. 8 rose gold versions were identified back in the market and what we have on hand is one of three with pink dial, making this vintage piece extremely rare. Visually, the multi-faceted, overhanging lugs is voluptuous and salient, a work of renowned goldsmith – Ponti Gennari.
