  • Catalogue Essay

    - Initially introduced in 2018 featuring a stainless steel case with a black dial and optional orange or black strap, the model underwent a remarkable update in 2021. The transformation involved a shift to the more opulent white gold for the case, while the dial now offered in two color choices: blue or green, as exemplified by the present model, accompanied by matching straps.

    - With a 42mm diameter case, the addition of two chronograph pushers does not compromise the integrity of the case, ensuring it remains compact and comfortable on the wrist. The watch strikes a harmonious balance between sportiness and sophistication, housing the renowned in-house calibre CH 28-520.

    - The present timepiece, in almost "like-new" condition from 2022, comes with its original Patek Philippe fitted presentation box, outer packaging, product literature and certificate of origin.

    Patek Philippe

    Swiss • 1839

    Since its founding in 1839, this famous Geneva-based firm has been surprising its clientele with superbly crafted timepieces fitted with watchmaking's most prestigious complications. Traditional and conservative designs are found across Patek Philippe's watches made throughout their history — the utmost in understated elegance.

    Well-known for the Graves Supercomplication — a highly complicated pocket watch that was the world’s most complicated watch for 50 years — this family-owned brand has earned a reputation of excellence around the world. Patek's complicated vintage watches hold the highest number of world records for results achieved at auction compared with any other brand. For collectors, key models include the reference 1518, the world's first serially produced perpetual calendar chronograph, and its successor, the reference 2499. Other famous models include perpetual calendars such as the ref. 1526, ref. 3448 and 3450, chronographs such as the reference 130, 530 and 1463, as well as reference 1436 and 1563 split seconds chronographs. Patek is also well-known for their classically styled, time-only "Calatrava" dress watches, and the "Nautilus," an iconic luxury sports watch first introduced in 1976 as the reference 3700 that is still in production today.
