I always found them compelling, but my biggest regret, if I am not mistaken, is that these dials are simply stamped and not produced by real guilloche techniques which is not worthy of PP.
The ref. 5022 with guilloché dials
What do you think about these examples of the Patek Philippe ref. 5022 with a guilloché dial? And do you have a favorite ? The “ pink on pink ” is the one which sings to me the most . The case is 33 mm diameter and the movement is manual-winding caliber 2...
In his review, Tim Mosso insists on the fact that the dial is real guilloché, not stamped...
I don't know better than him and I hope he is right! Best, Emmanuel
I hope so too.
The pattern looks so nice that I tend to believe it is guilloché. Best, Emmanuel
Hey, just an update on this
My beliefs regarding these dials were driven by close examination and paperwork in a complete boxed set indicating artisanal guilloche. That's the extent of my understanding, so please don't take my word as a Vatican-style "infallible" statement. It's jus...
Thank you, Tim.
We don't take you for an infallible pope, don't worry about that, but we know that you do your job seriously, with the information you have! And we greatly appreciate your work. Best, Emmanuel
Hi Emmanuel, pink on pink is
great and so is the black dial ! I prefer these two colors
Pink on pink.
To me this stands out a bit more than the others. They are all quite nice.
I think they're all nice except the white dial!
Which is interesting because I always thought the 5022 was at its best with a very plain white dial and painted arabic numerals.
Sorry
but I would always prefer Breguet for guilloché dials. Breguet has implemented this craftsmanship most impressively in its dials. For example, the two Breguet Marine 8818 (guilloché MOP dial) and 5817 as partner watches. ...
I agree that it would be better if the Romans weren’t flipped,
but the charm still works for me. Very personal, of course. Best, Emmanuel
I'm for the "pink-on-pink" as well, with the white gold/black dial as close competition.
After the 5098, this is some of the most appealing guilloché work I've seen from Patek.
The bracelet is impressive.
I don't find the white dial as appealing as the pink, but I definitely understand your choice, especially with this bracelet. Best, Emmanuel
It would be wonderful indeed.
And this 5022 in WG with black dial was a wonderful choice for a first PP. Best, Emmanuel
