  • Catalogue Essay

    Celebrating Patek Philippe’s 175th anniversary with style, the present timepiece is surely one of the most elegant release during 2014. Part of a limited edition series, the ref. 4675 was released in two metals, white gold and pink gold each limited to 150 pieces. Each proudly engraved with 175th anniversary on its caseback and are powered by the in-house self-winding calibre CH 28-520. Alongside of the celebration, the release also witnessed the introduction of the firm’s most complicated wristwatch, the Grandmaster Chime ref. 5175 with only 7 examples made.

    Preciously sculpted in 18K white gold, the contours of the ref. 4675 is incredibly three-dimensional thanks to the angular stepped lugs. The dial features a multi-scale dial that displays three scales: tachymeter, telemeter and pulsations. Finely printed on top of an almost cream coloured dial, the sophisticated and unconventional choice of a maroon brown and serif typeface gives this timepiece a classic yet modern touch. Cleverly marking the hours of the day with 12 baguette-cut diamond-set indexes and a pair of petite leaf hands, the multi-scale indication can be easily read with the long chronograph hand that extends to the edge of the dial.

    Well-preserved and accompanied with its full set of accessories, the owner can style the present timepiece with different looks. While the brown ostrich strap complements extremely well against the maroon brown scale, it will pair equally well with an earth tone ring jacket. The striking bright blue crocodile strap will definitely bring a bit of colour to a classic blue suit.
