Reference 2425 was launched in 1947 and the production ran until the late 1940s, with an extremely small series of about 60 pieces in yellow gold and some few rose gold models. The design is rather typical for the post-war period, which liked to mix cool, geometric form with more exuberant elements. The two-part cases for this model were created by Jean Sogno, the dials came from Stern Frères.
