Production for Ref. 4508 began in 1981 and continued for approximately five years thereafter. For this model, Patek Philippe commissioned a jeweler in Pforzheim, Germany, to create the bracelets. With an enigmatic blue dial with four diamonds set at the quarters, as well at 56 diamonds to the case this watch encapsulates Patek Philippe’s quest for sophistication and elegance. The total diamond weight is approximately 0.57cts.
