  • 圖錄文章

    Among the first Patek Philippe models to be granted a reference number, reference 96 was launched in 1932 - the same year the Sterns took over Patek Philippe - and indeed the reference system is part of their re-organisation of the company. It is considered a cornerstone of the Patek Philippe production and it is in fact the first "Calatrava" model, whose stylistic repercussions are still felt today - as easily testified by a simple glance at current-production ref. 5196.

    The standard dial configuration for the reference is as elegant and well-proportioned as its case, but a quick look at this example is enough to realise we are in the presence of something well removed from the “standard” production. In fact, few examples of the reference were fitted with different dials. Early examples are known with no subsidiary seconds, some pieces feature Roman or Arabic numerals at 3, 6, 9 and 12, others feature Breguet numerals, some are known with two-tone finish, and some, such as in this instance, not only present an incredibly attractive two-tone sector dial, but even the mechanical modification of the indirect center seconds. Early examples of the reference - such as this one - are powered by cal. 12’’’120 based on a LeCoultre ebauche intended for Gondolo timepieces but never used due to the recession, which features subsidiary seconds. Such LeCoultre movements were employed from 1932 to 1935. In 1935, Patek Philippe moves to a new version of cal. 12’’’120 - also in this instance some watches were upgraded with a Victorin Piguet-devised indirect seconds hack. Beyond the obvious differences between the two movements, even the implementation of the indirect center seconds varies according to the movement. LeCoultre ebauche presents “under the dial” gears, while Victorin Piguet chooses to employ an “over the bridge” system.

    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.
