Reference 2499 Third Series in Pink Gold
傳世珍品 : 百達翡麗紅金 2499
The present 2499 , third series , cased in pink gold is one of 6 examples known and first appeared at auction twelve years ago , where the watch sold for a staggering 965,000 Swiss Francs .
There are in total six known third series cased in pink gold , and the present watch is the second earliest known . This watch is considered one of the best . It is possibly unique because the dial is the so-called ‘ flat ’ dial , where there is no indentation to complete the circle in the moon phase aperture . The present watch is unpolished , and is in sensational condition . The case is overall extraordinarily crisp and in very original condition . Its proportions remain sharp and full , and it is evident that there is no polishing throughout . The lugs are very sharp and fluted to the highest degree , and there is a hallmark on the band at 10 o ’ clock . The hallmark itself is very faintly punched into the case , which scholars and the market now know , that all pink gold 3rd series are hallmarked in exactly the same way . The dial is beautifully raised with hard enamel , and has a very rich warm ivory tone . In superb , unspoiled and original condition , this 2499 pink competes at every level and must be considered one of the most beautiful watches manufactured by the firm .
Today , reference 2499 is one of the most sought-after vintage wristwatches of all time . First introduced in 1950 , the reference was only made in a total of 349 pieces .
