Notes

Reference 2526 was introduced in 1953 and was the first self-winding production wristwatch ever made by Patek Philippe. The watch was designed with the celebrated 12’’’-600 AT caliber, the first 2526 bearing the serial number 760,000. The present watch with the No. 760884 is therefore the 884th piece made. The Ref . 2526 is a most appealing wristwatch and is highly sought after by collectors, especially those with dial signed by retailer's such as this example.
