  • 圖錄文章

    Unmistakably a necessity for the quintessential gentleman of the late 19th and 20th century, the pocket watch, similar to watches today, was not only a form of portable timekeeper, but was also a symbol of status that could have defined and elevated a gentlemen.

    Produced in 1929, the present yellow gold open face pocket watch is fitted with what collectors can arguably consider the most aesthetically pleasing dials of the era, the sector dial with sweep-seconds hand. Sector dials truly became popular in the 1930s and usually allowed for the execution of a striking multi-tone silver dials with dark numerals at 3, 6, 9 and 12 o’clock, like the present pocket watch. Typically fitted on “sportier” Longines and Omega pocket watches, classic sector dials could exceptionally also be found on Rolexes, Breguets and Patek Philippes, like the present example. Most notably, sector dials have been fitted on the most coveted and sought after Patek Philippe's of the 19th century.

    Housed in a large 44mm diameter case, the geometric design of the “chemin de fer” railway minute track, and the contrasting font around the center dial captures the architectural, modern style that defined the art deco movement of the late 1920s through 1940s. The long and refined gold hands provide the finishing touch for this timeless and elegant watch that looks as stylish and modern today as it did so many decades ago.

    The present open-face yellow gold pocket watch is a classic example of the exceptional workmanship and understated design Patek Philippe is renowned for. Featuring a sporty multi-tone sector dial with sweep-seconds hand, applied Arabic numerals, and indelible enamel long signature, the present pocket watch is as equally contemporary and legible today as it was almost a century ago.
