  • Catalogue Essay

    Launched in 2007, the Patek Philippe ref. 4934G is a brilliant feminine version of Calatrava Travel Time. Designed to dazzle frequent flying yet style-conscious ladies, this elegant timepiece is framed in the iconic rounded case, entranced by a beautifully frosted diamond-set bezel. Like a halo surrounding the dial with a blinding effect, the bezel is adorned with 48 white round diamonds that total an estimated 1.02 carats.

    Featuring an opulent, lustrous mother-of-pearl dial that simultaneously displays two time zones, it is fitted with two individual hour hands that move in synchrony, indicating the local time with the solid feuille hand and the home time via its hollowed counterpart. Thanks to its 24-hour subdial at 12 o’clock, one can easily tell whether it is daytime or night-time at home.

    Presented in excellent overall condition with its original accessories and boasting an elegant but sporty aesthetic, this mesmerising dual-time wristwatch is the ideal flying partner that can be dressed up or down, depending on its wearer’s lifestyle and the present example Patek Philippe lady’s ref. 4934G is the 5th example to appear at auction.

    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.
