专家说明

With Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the present watch in 1961 and its subsequent sale on 3 August 1961.
This watch is distinguished by its very good, original overall condition. It is furthermore believed to be one of less than a dozen examples of this attractive model to appear in public to date.

In today's market, reference 2508 is undoubtedly amongst the most popular "time only" wristwatches by Patek Philippe. Its plain yet masculine and sporty look make it a great collector's watch, especially since its case proportions are very much identical to the much celebrated screw back chronograph reference 1463.

Reference 2508 was launched in 1951 and remained in production until around 1960. The model is illustrated in Patek Philippe Wristwatches by Martin Huber & Alan Banbery, 2nd edition, p. 204, pl. 328.
