Patek Philippe

Patek Philippe is most well known for its horological competencies, as we saw them at work in the 5450 Advanced Research and the 5207 instantaneous perpetual calendar with minute repeater and tourbillon. Still Patek Philippe is also a long time, very long...  

The sugar box is so sweet would like to have it on my table Thank you for this infos Sincerely

Patek should really have taken more care and properly finished the underside of the balance wheel of the ref. 5180--see the first and second real pics (after the first couple press photos)...it really stands in sharp contrast to the otherwise terrific job... 

will keep quiet Lots of hard intense work but I am not sure if the desired effect has been achieved. Possibly they need to be seen in real life to be better appreciated Thanks Jerome ps Do you have special key for the PP factory?? Julian

to keep art in the watch along with the art of the watchmaking. We really must keep this alive and teach the younger artists so it can continue on and not be lost. There is really something mesmerizing about the technique, color and texture of these piece... 

really amazing works from Patek. Cheers

enamel is great. It is always nice to read/see the different skills of a brand. My favorite is the " Laying tiger". Will they be available only as a limited set, on order, ...? I assume, there will be a "huge" price tag. Any idea? Thanks Jerome! oliver

Thanks for all the wonderful pictures I have an old skeleton, and is wondering how it compares with the new one in white gold: Which one would you prefer? Skeleton watch - with strap Patek skeleton - yellow gold...  

I really don't like those 12 blue parts on the recent model. I don't know what it is, I don't know why it is there but imo it looks very cheap.

I didn't know that PP produced these typeof watches. Thank you for your excellent report and photos. I have to say that from a personal opinion they would not be a watch that I would consider purchasing.

not my kind of watches but they are masterpieces !

Personally I think Patek's strength lies in its complications, it should leave skeletonising to Vacheron. - SJX

I'm not a big fan of the enamel PP watches, as I prefer the UN watches on this thema. The skeleton you posted first here is maybe more a watch to appreciate in the flesh, so I will reserve my judgement till this moment. But the clocks, my friend, the cloc... 

Hi my friend, Don't try to tell me that you like this clock! You find it nice perhaps, but don't tell me you could own it! Don't get too close of the skeleton, you may end up with a new PP, once more! Cheers Dje
