1940s Patek Philippe ref. 2066 in18 kt rose gold

Founded in 1839 by Antoine Norbert de Patek and Adrien Philippe in Geneva, Patek Philippe has established itself as one of the most revered names in the world of luxury watchmaking. Renowned for its impeccable craftsmanship, innovation, and enduring elegance, the brand has been a leader in creating the most complicated and sophisticated timepieces.

Patek Philippe is famous for its stunning complications, including perpetual calendars, minute repeaters, and tourbillons, and its iconic collections, such as the Calatrava, Nautilus, and Aquanaut, are highly coveted by collectors and connoisseurs. The brand is also known for its commitment to producing watches that not only reflect technical brilliance but also offer timeless beauty. In 1932, Patek Philippe revolutionized watchmaking with the development of the World Time watch, a feat that reinforced its position as a pioneer.

This extremely rare piece is a true delight and a collector’s dream. Produced in the 40s, under the reference 2066, it has a slightly different case from the regular models, with almost unique decorations. Featuring also a 18kt rose gold dial with 2 different finishing, it has an unmatched luxurious appeal. Finally, its movement is the mythical 9″90 caliber, one of the nicest forma movements ever produced, this time without sub-second, which is also very rare.
