This watch is accompanied by a Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of this watch in 1956 and its subsequent sale on 2 February 1957.
Model 2508 is today amongst the most popular "time only" wristwatches by Patek Philippe. Its simple but yet masculine and sporty look make it a great collector's watch, especially since its case proportions are very much identical to the much celebrated screw back chronograph, reference 1463.
Reference 2508 was launched in 1951 and was in production until 1960. The model is illustrated in Patek Philippe Wristwatches by Martin Huber & Alan Banbery, second edition, p. 204, pl. 328.
