With months spent away from home due to pandemic, finally I made in back to Bangkok and had the chance to dine out with my family.  Given this opportunity, I selected one of my favorite dress with an alluring dark blue color overlaid with a black pattern.  My father taught me at an young age that the clothing is supposed to match the watch which is the main focus!   ( I always select the watch before my outfit 😁 )   With such motto, I wore this dress to match 6002G which was truly a darling (other than me πŸ˜‡) to my dad.  6002 was my dad’s β€œSweetheart”  Furthermore, with this watch on my wrist, I felt the presence of my dear father! He adored the minute repeater sound and  whenever I get a chance, I still wind them for him.

6002G is β€œmusic” to my ears and the enamel dial is simply fabulous! πŸ‘

The Diamond πŸ’Ž ring is great but 6002G was the main event for this dinner.

Do you also find clothing to match your watch ?






About the Patek Philippe Complications Ref. 6002

The Patek Philippe Complications reference 6002 is a highly complex grand complication wristwatch, distinguished by its double-sided display and extensive array of astronomical functions. It represents a significant achievement in horological miniaturization and craftsmanship, combining multiple intricate mechanisms within a single timepiece. This reference is positioned at the pinnacle of Patek Philippe's complicated watch offerings, showcasing the brand's expertise in traditional watchmaking.

The watch features an elaborately hand-engraved case, typically crafted from precious metals, which houses a highly sophisticated manual-wind movement. The front dial displays traditional timekeeping along with perpetual calendar indications and a moon phase, while the reverse side is dedicated to astronomical displays including a sidereal time, sky chart, and the trajectory of the moon. The crystal protecting these intricate dials is sapphire, ensuring clarity and durability.

For collectors, the reference 6002 appeals to those seeking the ultimate expression of Patek Philippe's haute horlogerie. Its rarity, the complexity of its movement, and the artisanal decoration of its case make it a highly sought-after piece. It stands as a testament to the brand's commitment to pushing the boundaries of mechanical watchmaking and decorative arts.

That is terrific. Was it happenstance that PP produced this dial with a location in your hometown?
