Realized in an extremely rarified edition of 30 pieces in 1999, the present watch commemorates the return to Chinese administration of the Macau territories, until then under Portuguese administration for more than 400 years. The case reprises the timeless proportions of reference 96 - the original Calatrava - the main difference being a 33mm diameter rather than the original 31mm. The dial is one of the most unusual seen on similar models, incorporating Breguet numerals, eccentric seconds at 5 o’clock, and an emblem at 7 o’clock celebrating the date of the handover. While highly uncommon, similar layout are known from Patek Philippe production. Most notably, few very rare examples of reference 96 fitted with observatory-grade movement bear a similar emblem at 3 o’clock with the signature of the manufacturer.
