Read Conditions of Sale
Fused with traditional Swiss artisanal craft and technical excellence, Patek Philippe’s cloisonné enamel art has been the brand’s heritage jewel celebrated by esteemed collectors. Only the most skilled artisans were able to execute a beautiful and unique cloisonné enamel dial. It requires microscopic detailing by hand, small enough to create a finished portrait on the dial. The craftsmanship and man hours needed to create a cloisonné enamel dial to Patek Philippe standards is a painstakingly long process.

Launched in 2003, the reference 5076 had an array of enamel dial designs, mostly in series of four depicting boats on the Geneva, fishes or zodiacs. Cased in a perfect canvas of the elegant platinum rectangular Gondolo case, the pair of orange tailed Crown Butterflyfish swims peacefully among the reef. Glistering under the ocean with intricately shaped gold wire and shades of blue, the moving water of the ocean paints a vivid picture of the tropical waters. The series was launched with four type of distinct fishes in limited production and was discontinued in 2006, the present 5076P in excellent condition with its Certificate of Origin is highly sought-after and is definitely a beauty for the connoisseurs with an appreciation of artisan timepieces.
