Produced for 23 years beginning in 1944, the Patek Philippe reference 1593, nicknamed the 'Hour Glass' or 'Tegola' by Italian collectors, was one of the first non-traditional shaped watches from the manufacturer. A striking expression of post-war exuberance, it is believed that only 980 pieces were made: 500 in yellow gold, 250 in pink gold, and 230 in platinum.
Furthermore, the extract from the archives confirms that the watch left the factory with diamond indexes and its platinum bracelet, one of the rarest variations for this model.
The present hourglass shaped case with concave and convex lines was created by the manufacture's trusted specialist for shaped cases, master casemaker C. Markowski, identified by the Geneva Key 8 engraved inside the case back. Powering the watch is the mighty caliber 9'''90, included in many of Patek Philippe's rectangular watches, which wonderfully matches the shape of the case.
