Catalogue Essay
• The Patek Philippe Ref. 5180/1G is a stunning showcase of the brand’s artistry and technical finesse. Though it features a simple two-hand display, this ultra-thin skeletonized watch is anything but ordinary. Encased in white gold and powered by the legendary calibre 240 with a micro-rotor, it offers a remarkably slim profile while revealing the full depth of its mechanical beauty.
• What sets this reference apart is its intricate hand-engraving. Over 130 hours are devoted to decorating nearly every surface of the movement. The volutes, arabesques, and fine lines reflect the signature of each master engraver, making every piece unique. A loupe becomes essential to fully appreciate the craftsmanship and skeletonization.
• The 18K white gold mesh polished bracelet adds both elegance and substance, while blue hands provide a subtle contrast and excellent legibility. Branding is minimal, with only the Calatrava cross at 2 o’clock as a refined nod to Patek’s heritage.
• As part of Patek Philippe’s esteemed Rare Handcrafts collection, the Ref. 5180/1G stands as a benchmark in art-driven watchmaking. It is a tribute to traditional techniques, timeless design, and the enduring value of human craftsmanship in haute horlogerie. The present example, offered in excellent condition, is a superb addition for discerning collectors seeking a piece that exemplifies both technical mastery and artistic expression.
