Brother and sister - rare handcrafts

Charming duo you have, here.

Not easy to photograph… but beautiful to wear and (look closer …)

Very nice!

Lovely, both of them -- thanks for the (barefoot) closeups! :-)

Superb taste!

This 2018 limited edition Calatrava wristwatch celebrates the majesty and beauty of the Alpine landscape that – together with watchmaking – has made Switzerland famous.

This limited edition with dial in Grand Feu cloisonné enamel marks an unprecedented meeting between the renowned design of the Golden Ellipse, launched in 1968, and the geometric motifs typical of the 1970s.

Wow, that Ellipse!! Reminds me of my room's walls when I was a child!

Exactly!

Very nice and meaningful references! Double congratulations!

The Alpinist is just nice.

What a Rare Handcraft duo -- wood marquetry & enamel in one shot!! ;-) Thanks for sharing these unique beauties, I would admire them for hours!!

Thanks 🙏🏼

Pleasure🙏👍

What a great pair of rare handcrafts watches !

Really super pair!

Wow! Both are super cool!

I do love them both…but I like playfulness of the enamel dial and the colorful strap! Enjoy!

That IS interesting! I hope Patek continues to be adventurous with these special pieces! Thank you, Fab, for always having such great facts!

Thank you. I really find these models a brilliant way to again draw attention to the Golden Ellipse, while at the same time rewarding a few top customers with a Rare Handcraft...I'm pretty sure we will see more in the future! ;-)

Wonderful duo!

Fantastic to see the alpinist...I was wondering who the lucky

Very nice pair of Patek watches. Wonderful picture. 👍

The twin Lac d’Emosson is up at auction in HK. Would make a wonderful pair

+1, I'm sure it will fetch above MSRP, but for sure whoever purchases it will add a real gem to their collection (and it's a watch that may take years to show up on the market again, so it's certainly a great chance! ;-)
