Now available, a limited edition Patek Philippe Calatrava from 1993, celebrating the 150th Anniversary of the retailer “Garrard”.

We very rarely see numbered limited edition watches from Patek Philippe, so to find such a rare one, which is over 30 years old, is a thoroughly enjoyable watch to be able to list for sale. As touched on, the reference showcased here is a limited edition of just 150 individually numbered pieces, celebrating the 150th Anniversary of the prestigious London retailer, Garrard, being the Crown Jeweller.

At 33.5mm, the watch wears exceptionally elegantly, and although it does have a very special case back, it is the front of the watch which is the focal point. Looking at its dial, it could quite easily be described as salmon in colour, which when paired with its rose gold raised hour markers and case, make for a gorgeous aesthetic.

Often, raised Breguet numerals are a hugely desirable asset to Patek Philippe watches. However, this particular reference goes beyond that, and features matching Breguet hands also, which make for an incredibly special look when they move perpetually above the watch’s salmon-coloured dial.

In exceptional condition throughout, having rarely been worn and remaining basically untouched and unpolished from 1993, the watch comes from its original owner, complete with its entirety of accessories from new, including its outer cardboard for its booklet, and its all-important 150th Anniversary commemorative box, albeit missing its cushion. The watch is available for viewing in London and purchase worldwide. Please get in touch for further information.
