It's very nice. Although the "Email" on the sapphire glass seems like it's overdoing it.

Personally, while I like the Patek 5116G which has "email" written on the bottom of the dial to signify the enamel dial, I'm not sure I like it like this, so far up. Being on the sapphire glass is also a funny thing - I personally don't mind watches that are completely unbranded. So I'd possibly prefer a Patek Philippe with a clear sapphire glass without the PATEK PHILIPPE GENEVE EMAIL printing at all. That being said, it's a lovely piece. It reminds me that the Buddhist monks who spend days or sometimes weeks create mandalas destroy their beautiful artwork after its completion. A waste - but a reminder that everything is fleeting. And time is very fleeting. Yes, a Patek Philippe with a lot of meaning here.

I like this arabesque look- sort of like the VC tourbillon that was put out recently. For me, hard to tell what is going on. Looks like cloisonne black enamel and leaf work, then is the silver part diamonds? Or is that metal work on the dial? Can't tell f...
A gorgeous dial!

While I do love many of the rare handicrafts dials as works of art, I wouldn’t wear the watch. I would feel strange with wearing horses, birds and whatnot on my wrist. However, this mandala version I can see myself wearing regularly. Not concerned about t...
