The beauty of enamel watches 2
After the sailboat, I was lucky to get another enamel wristwatch from Anita Porchet's workshop. I think this is the first time Patek ever done enamel on the Golden Ellipse series.
According to Ms. Porchet she added opal powder to the enamel material in the collection, so when you look carefully with the right light source and angle, you should be able to see some kind of refection like you are looking at pearl...
Another dial from the 4 watches.

Wow!!
When was this series released?!? Amazing pieces...love the color and detail on them. Definitely an art in itself that also tells time!
The 5738G are from year 2019.
These series are inspired by the Japanese artist; Ohara koson(小原古邨). ...
Thanks Michael for sharing this enamel ellipse !
The art work is wonderful and the special shape of this watch accentuates the artistic nature of this enamel dial.👍 Please continue to share more !
Hi, Michael. Thanks for sharing the gorgeous 5738/50G. I have asked my AD, but sadly my profolio/ Patek collection is inadequate to apply for one of these rare handicrafts. Probably need to resort to auction house.....
Wear your beauty often in this festive season! Best, Henry
That’s really an OMG piece!
There is another member who is no longer here that got the 5738/50G-012....so the 2 of you have 2 of these 4 unique pieces/series. Can you kindly share how to get allocated such exquisite pieces? There is no question your collection must be superb so it c...
I don't think this series is unique...
I don't know how PP decide to give which piece to who. But I think if you keep applying, eventually you will get one. The other way is to buy it from auction.
Not unique, but (very) limited editions. With your record with Patek, my suggestion would definitely be to give it a try! ;-)
It's impossible to know the odds of receiving one ahead of time (it depends on a number of factors, including which markets are favored each year -- keep in mind there's only a handful of watches vs. hundreds of very qualified "candidates")...but given yo...
Thank you both for the info and kind suggestions...
I’ll keep building my record and apply when I’m ready. Happy holidays!
Major congrats on this piece of art
I have always been very impressed by the fantastic work on enamel. I remember dreaming for a very very long time in front of the superb work of Suzanne Rohr at the Patek Museum in Geneva. This is incredibly impressive and Anita Porchet’s work is equally b...
