Richards was born the same day however not the same year. I was born 1955 and is considering buying a PP Calatrava from that year. I have been told by people who do have a watch from the same year as when they were born that it adds a further dimension. Also in the awake of the fact that I plan to pass it on to the next generation. Does anyone have any advice to me when I look for a PP 1955? A model I should go for or aviod? Also If you happen to wear a watch from the year when you were born If you think it added an extra feeling? Thanks in advance

Thanks.
Strap is from ABP. It is not such a bright blue in real life, but the dark blue complements the yellow gold case and eggshell white dial well - in my eyes.

Thank You.
I had watches from Lange & Söhne and a few Rolex sports watches at this time. I was looking for a classic vintage watch for formal use, it should be a Patek Philippe. I did some research about the Ref. 2526. When I found this 2526 with double signed dial ...
Double signed I really like
When you weari it at formal occasions any comments from others on the strap?! Any advice for me when I search for a PP Calatrava 1955? Thanks
I am not a vintage PP expert.
but there are other nice references, such as 570, 2508 or 1578 with it´s spider lugs, worth to look for. I was smitten by the reference 2526: the first automatic movement from PP, considered by many as one of the most beautiful and finished automatic move...
I stand corrected!
When I saw the strap on your first pic I did not really like it. Looking at the pic you sent now it fits you and the watch very well. Are you thinking about selling it? Thanks for your great input - much appreciated
