The generously sized Patek Philippe reference 1503 was catapulted to worldwide fame when in 2007, Simon Wiesenthal's personal watch in stainless steel was auctioned. Simon Wiesenthal is celebrated today for his unparalleled work in bringing to justice Nazi war criminals associated with the atrocities of World War II. Selling for over CHF 350’000, it was the highest price ever achieved for a watch of this reference.
