Patek Philippe Ref. 2499 first and second series
Interested in knowing about Ref. 2499 first and second series. In the first series apparently 40 watches in yellow gold, and 4 in pink gold are believed to have been produced thus far. Would like to know the dates when the first series started, and ended (I think 1950-1957?, and when the second series started, and ended, and how many reported yellow gold watches produced, apparently 7 pink gold are known to exist in the Ref. 2499 second series. Apparently the 3rd series, and 4th series 2499 are much less rare than the 2499 first series (the rarest) and 2499 second series. Can anybody please shed some light on 2499 first and second series? The third series began in 1960-1978, and the fourth series began in 1978-1985.

When a person talks about themselves it is a sign of arrogance, certainly not polite to talk about yourself.

it would be unpolite not to introduce yourself, at least this is what we at PuristSPro believe in. More details can be found here: amp;fi= Thomas, your production years for the 1st series are wrong - 1951 to circa 1960 is correct. ... Third series from 19...
