Case: 18k pink gold, push back. Dial: silvered, cleaned.
The Calatrava reference 2448 in a 18k pink gold case has a classic, minimalist design, which - in combination with the silver-coloured brushed dial and the pink gold elements such as the applied hour indexes and the alpha hands - gives the watch a strikingly elegant appearance.
Reference 2448 was launched in 1948 and produced until 1952 at least. The cases were mainly made in pink gold with some few yellow god exceptions.
