Patek Philippe Flame Lug Ref. 2431

We are so very excited to be offering this fresh to the market incredibly designed Patek Philippe reference 2431 in pink gold with twisted 'Flame Lugs'. This reference was introduced in 1948 and made in a very limited production until 1955. The ornate twisted sculptural lugs are the star of the show here. This extraordinary case was made by the famous Patek Philippe casemaker Emile Vichet.   His telltale marks are on the case ( see blog story for more in-depth information.) The all original silvered dial with enamel signature and tracking is in excellent condition. This rare beauty is powered by a caliber 12-120 manual wind movement. An Archive from Patek Philippe has been ordered and will accompany the watch.  For a more detailed and in-depth description of this rare watch, please see our Blog post by Aircooltime.
