Ref. 2508 was first launched in the mid 1930s. Equipped with a large, masculine case with a classic "Calatrava" design, it is among the most attractive chronograph models of any brand in this wristwatch design era. Equipped with an ultra exclusive black dial, this watch is an exceptional example for this reference. black dials are very rare, with only a few examples. This dial features a combination of Arabic and stick indexes. Further enhancing its beauty, the multi-scale dial is decorated with tachymeter and telemeter scales printed in gilded silver that provide an extraordinary contrast. This unusual configuration adds to the extreme rarity of the timepiece. Ref. 2508 can be classified in two different generations, the first one boasts a large 37.2 mm case equipped with oval push-buttons, as shown in the present example. The second generation was slightly smaller and measured 35.2 mm and was equipped with rectangular buttons. It is amazing to see how an 80-year-old chronograph wristwatch can be as timeless and contemporary today as it was when it was first launched. This surprising impact is achieved thanks to the soft lines of the case and the highly symmetrical and architectural dial design. it is a sporty yet elegant man's watch and its design is more modern than previous Rolex chronograph watches. Stored in excellent condition.
