Catalogue Essay
- The Patek Philippe Sculpture collection, a surprising departure from the brand's usual creations, was designed in 1999. Its origins are particularly interesting, as it was initially made for the Russian market to celebrate five years of business with the Russian distributor, Mercury Group. Shortly after its debut, the model was introduced to the global market six months later.
- The Sculpture collection includes a total of 2,700 examples across a dozen variations, with no more than 300 examples made in each reference, making each one a rare gem in the market. This timepiece offers a unique Russian twist on sports watches from the era, drawing inspiration from Continental European traditions with its smooth curves and sculpted silhouette.
- Notably distinguished by its striking imperial blue enamel crown, which pays homage to its Russian roots, the present ref. 5091/1A-010 in steel features a rare black dial with luminous Arabic numerals and is powered by the self-winding caliber 315.
- Preserved in excellent overall condition and complete with its Certificate of Origin and presentation box, this watch stands as a testament to Patek Philippe’s creativity and willingness to experiment.
