Patek Philippe 2591 Calatrava "Disco Volante" 18K Rose Gold Silver Dial Serpico y Laino

This Patek Philippe Calatrava "Disco Volante" ref. 2591 in 18K rose gold is a superb example of mid‑20th century elegance, distinguished by its 34.5 mm “flying saucer” case and understated silver dial. Introduced in the early 1960s, this reference showcases Patek’s refined design language with hidden lugs that allow the case to appear to float on the wrist. This example is particularly interesting and collectible, featuring a caseback stamped with hallmarks from the Venezuelan retailer, Serpico y Laino. Powering the watch is the venerable manual‑wind Caliber 23‑300, featuring a Gyromax balance and overcoil hairspring, widely regarded as one of Patek’s most finely executed 10‑ligne movements of its era. The slim profile and minimalist dial underscore its heritage as the archetypal dress watch, while the rose gold case adds warmth and presence. This is a piece that speaks to connoisseurs who appreciate the quiet sophistication and mechanical excellence that define Patek Philippe’s golden age. Excellent Condition with European Watch Company pouch.
