2.Reference 1527 Perpetual Calendar in 18k Rose Gold -$5,708,885
While this watch may not be number one in our most expensive Patek Philippe watches it ranks top as the most expensive wristwatch made by the company ever sold at auction.
This is a remarkable Patek Philippe wristwatch that was manufactured between 1943 and 1944 during the second World War.
No. 1527 inspires elegance through its amazing curved golden lugs, dial layout and unusual large diameter. It is such an incredible piece even though it was created over 70 years ago!
The timepiece was available for sale more than twenty years ago but because there wasn’t sufficient information of the watch it was locked away.
Thanks to the archives of Patek Philippe, it was revealed that the watch belonged to the Stern family and is the most complicated piece of this reference.
