  • Catalogue Essay

    Released in a limited edition of 450 pieces for the 175th anniversary of Patek Philippe, the lady’s ref. 7175-001 is distinguished by its sublime 38mm pink gold case, topped with an exquisite diamond bezel that elevates its overall sophistication and timeless elegance. The dazzling and divine aura surrounding the dial is composed of 70 round diamonds that total approximately 0.630 ct. Moving on to the dial, the celestial centre with moon phases is highlighted by a bronze 24-hour ring, along with the 24 cities that encircle it. As a nod to Patek Philippe’s hometown, the city of Paris on the standard issues has been replaced with Geneva.

    The world of watch collecting is no longer a boy's club, and women’s interest in horology has grown significantly over the last 20 years. Brands now look to these important tastemakers, seeking to give them the same complicated timepieces men desire but with a feminine touch that can be easily dressed up or down. Both tastefully executed and technically sound, the present wristwatch is precisely that and is offered in immaculate condition with its original accessories.

  • Artist Biography

    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.
