Specialist note

Reference 600 was launched in 1933 and was one of Patek Philippe's most popular dress watches ever produced. Also called "white tie" or "smoking" watch, its timeless, modernist design enjoys still today great popularity amongst collectors.

The model was available in yellow, pink and white gold and in platinum, with sweep centre and subsidiary seconds.
