Patek Philippe Calatrava ref. 2533 Tiffany

A 1950s Patek Philippe ref. 2533 retailed by Tiffany & Co. Tiffany signed Patek’s have long been subject of intrigue in the collecting world. For me, examples from this era are the most appealing.

This one retains the hand etched Tiffany inventory numbers on the back of the lug, an important detail for Tiffany retailed watches of the era. The reference itself is also a personal favorite of mine. The 2533 was the successor to the famed ref 565 and is still not fully appreciated by the market. This is the only known example of the reference with Tiffany signature. An Extract from the Archives has been ordered and will be supplied upon receipt from Patek.
