Catalogue Essay
The Patek Philippe Ref. 2513 is a refined and relatively uncommon piece from the early 1950s. Crafted in pink gold, this watch features a distinctive curved-square case with flared concave sides and gracefully elongated teardrop lugs. The dial features bold dagger markers that matches its dauphine hands perfectly.

Inside, it houses the manual-wind Calibre 10-200, a beautifully finished movement that perfectly complements the watch’s elegant aesthetic.
Don’t be misled by its size; this timepiece fits remarkably well on any wrist. Confirmed by the Patek Philippe Extract from the archives the present timepiece is from 1957.
