Double ellipse trouble
Hi guys! Just wanted to share with you these new Pateks i just added to my collection! I personally LOVE them, so beautiful, hope you enjoy the pictures ! ...
Glorious.
I am partial to the hand engraved dial that Fabrizio owns as well.... Thanks for the pictures, cheers, Filip
Thanks Filip, two pieces from different (both current, in-catalog) collections, but indeed the same Rare Handcraft techniques are featured in this beauty and in my 5088/100P -- hand-engraving and Grand Feu enamel! ;-)
After the engraver finishes his work on the while gold base of the dials, the same are then filled in with black enamel to complete these masterpieces! Cheers. ...
It's mesmerizing....
and it's besides the point that it likely takes you ten seconds to figure out what the time is 😁.... Cheers, Filip

No kidding…we have 2 of the 4 rare miniature monkeys in the world here on this forum!!!
2 of the nicest GEs one can hope for. Congrats 🎉 and Thanks for sharing.
If the monkey was carrying a pear, then I'd say that would be my portrait!
As I like to eat pears!
Which reminds me, I haven't had any pears lately!
I am currently on a gilded island and they give me tangerines here and tea.
Come to California sometime!
We have better weather. And we have wine! And I think we get pears too. Although the pears come from Oregon and Washington I believe.
Yes! I seem to meet most people in Geneva!
I was complaining to a friend and member on this forum that I see him more often in Switzerland and Dubai than I see him in the States. Despite both of us living in the States. But I'm bound to have to make a trip to Boston someday! I actually miss Boston...
I've never been!
Although, I was joking once a long time ago. I said as a joke that it would be a privilege to live there and that it'd be one of the best neighborhoods in San Francisco if it was developed for residential construction. Imagine if some developer bought the...
Someone from Calif won the $2B Lottery
They haven’t released a name yet (was it you?) but did say taxes would be at least 50%.
That'd be nice if it were true!
I'd be able to put that million to good use! It could fund a nice Patek Philippe watch, or a very nice clock from Miki Eleta, or one of those fancy independents like the Christian Klings pocket watch. Or... I could finally afford to buy that Lamborghini s...
It's pretty amazing to think that $1M is almost a consolation prize, and that such a good list needs to contain a number of "or... or..." rather than "and... and..."!! ;-))
Honestly, I also never play the lottery, since it's an intrinsically "unfair game" (that is, basically, even if you win the amount you get is (usually) much less than what you should according to the odds of winning). But I can't really blame those who wa...
Supposedly...
Let's look at the math though... Supposedly there's a 1 in 292 million chance of winning the lottery. Considering it's $2 to buy a ticket, why don't I just buy every single ticket combination possible? That'd cost $584 million. I don't know why financial ...
I'm certainly no expert on the economic side, but any cons that I could see by reading this in real time, you already summed them up very well on the next line! ;-))
Besides that, as you said, I think the threshold to even consider such a proposition needs to be much higher than $2B (an already unprecedented figure), very few businesses may want to invest over half a billion dollars in a project that virtually guarant...
I like how you think FabR!
Yes, FabR and I expect a payment or a percentage for any profitable idea based off our original ideas!
Fantastic duo !
These two rare handcrafts siblings belong together 😃 The AP signature is so meaningful 👍
Welcome to my forum G., and sincere congratulations on this remarkable Rare Handcraft duo! Glad you are the recipient of one of the marvelous, out-of-catalog 5738/50Gs this year (four editions of six models each!), as well as of course a 5738/51G ;-)
Three major Rare Handcraft techniques (enamel plus miniature painting, and hand-engraving) in two watches only is impossible to beat! Enjoy.
Beautiful pieces!
Adore them both. Congratulations for having such a special duo of Ellipses.
