What fantastic watches - thank you for sharing them and educating as you go. Not wishing any disrespect to the modern brand (I do own modern Patek), when I see Pateks from the 1950s to the '90s, I can help but think their modern equivalents are simply less beautiful. Slim, unobtrusive, restrained and pure, the back catalogue is sublime. I suppose the answer is to get into vintage but nonetheless, the lack of elegance in the modern range does concern me.

You hit the nail on the head with that observation.Ive thought the same thing about the modern collection vs. these pieces we see on Collectability.

Definitely a "go to" KZitem information/entertainment source worth watching over and over again. Would love to see a video on the magazines and the neck tie history as well.

Thank you for your kind comment and we always welcome topic suggestions. Are you referring to the Patek Philippe Magazine? If so, you might find this article interesting that Tania Edwards wrote about the 25th anniversary of the magazine: collectability.com/learn/25-years-of-the-patek-philippe-magazine/ Could you explain what you mean by the 'neck tie history'? Thanks so much!

Is the 2526 an enamel dial?
@johnreardon3158

Born with a silvered 4 diamond dial as stated on the archive and currently has an enamel baton dial on it (both the original diamond dial and enamel dial are being sold with this watch).
