Patek Philippe produced the reference 2526 from 1953 until approximately 1960. The model was Patek Philippe's first timepiece with an automatic movement, the legendary caliber 12-600 AT. With its attractive combination of a state-of-the-art movement and traditional enamel dial this reference is considered a very desirable collectors' watch
Reference 2526 is illustrated in Patek Philippe by M. Huber and A. Banberry, 1998, plate 349, p. 217.
