Catalogue Essay
The floral composition finds perfect harmony with the pink gold case, graceful curves complementing the organic motif. Beneath this botanical marvel resides the ultra-thin cal. 240, visible through the sapphire caseback alongside Geneva striping and anglage finishing - a discreet reminder of the technical mastery underlying this artistic achievement.
As a distinguished member of the Rare Handcrafts collection, this Orchids interpretation embodies Patek Philippe's commitment to preserving vanishing decorative arts. Complete with all original accessories, it represents more than a timekeeping instrument - it is a permanent floral bloom captured in fire and gold, standing as a testament to 21st century enameling virtuosity.
Patek Philippe
Swiss | 1839Since 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.
