“One of the most important vintage wristwatches in the world.” The Asprey is a Patek Philippe perpetual calendar chronograph, reference 2499 and it is exceptional in every way. Made in 1952, the watch is one of this reference’s highly sought-after First Series, and was sold in 1956 by prestigious London jeweller Asprey. It is the only known 2499 to be retailed by Asprey. One of the best-preserved examples known of a 1st series 2499, it was last seen on the market in 2006, when it sold at Sotheby’s, achieving the highest price for a Twenty-Four Ninety-Nine at the time and taking on legendary status. This exceptional timepiece will be offered in #Geneva on 13 November with an estimate of CHF 2-4 million and is on view today and tomorrow in #Dubai #sothebyswatches #sothebysgeneva #sothebysdubai #patekphilippe #patek #patekaholic #patekcollector #vintagepatek #patekgallery #2499 aspreylondon #asprey #aspreylondon
