Originally launched in 1951 and only produced in small numbers until 1954, the reference 2511 was one of the largest vintage watches ever produced by Patek Philippe with its 36.5 mm diameter. It is estimated that approximately 120 were made in yellow gold and 100 produced in pink gold. Of those, only 6 and 5 respectively were ever brought back to market. This beautiful yellow gold wristwatch gives any collector a chance to own one of the few 2511's available in circulation.
