FYI....
A rose gold / black enamel dial with bracelet sold in May at Christies in Geneva for a mere 123k CHF (sorry if it breaks forum protocol to mention price!). I was very tempted and lusted after the picture in the catalog, but was certainly not going to bid on something like that without seeing it personally. I remember noting that it did not have an Abstract of the Archives accompanying it and wondered what that might mean. It was gorgeous!

John! You're killing me!
these are my dream watches!!!! especially the RG!!!! I'm loosing sleep tonight and thanks for sharing!! Mech.
Awesome!
Add in a rose gold with black dial and it's game, set and match!! Timeless beauty and elegance in that simple reference... Thanks for sharing, Steve
Black dial
are there more black dials with pink/rose or yellow gold? I know that yellow is extremely rare. What about pink/rose?
black dial
as far as i know there are less than 20 black dials have appeared in the market. and only about 5 rose among them.
auction piece
would love to know the condition of that piece. Not mentioned in Chritie's description. They say 8 rose gold black dials are known which means only about 8-12 in yellow gold assuming only 20 black dials total. Who knows?

truely a beautiful picture
It’s a treat to see these on their own, but to see the three together is indeed rare. The only thing missing is the black dial with the Breguet numbers to complete the picture, on any metal but preferably on the rose gold. Well done, a collecting triumph ...
Nice trio !
2526 is one of my all time favorite simple watches. Nice to see such a fabulous trio. Very nice variations. Congratulations! Indeed 2526 makes a very interesting and valuable theme in watch collecting, as it has many special and attractive incarnations.
black or breguet
i do agree that the next 2526 should be black or breguet. but both are very very rare.
