Patek Philippe – watches that inspire (my favorites)
Welcome in the next part from “my favorites” series. In this entry I’m showing you watches that inspire me and wind up my passion to the timepieces. This time I’ll be talking about 5 Patek Philippe watches that I adore at the most. Let’s begin.
Patek Philippe – 5170G-001 |
Elegant watch with a vintage accents presented on a dial. Beautiful 39mm of diameter case made of white gold. There is a Caliber CH 29-535 PS manually wound, mechanical movement enclosed in this case. It brings to life a chronograph with its functions. We can see a central chronograph hand and two subdials displaying small seconds (at 9 o’clock) and 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock. The interesting feature about this watch is a Pulse Register scale. It’s a very helpful thing for doctors or nurses. The doctor or nurse who needs to know your heart rate, rather than counting for a full minute, or counting for 15 seconds and multiplying by four, will just start the chronograph, count 15 heartbeats, stops the chronograph and reads your pulse rate without all that annoying and difficult multiplication. Silvery white dial is pretty legible and matches well with black alligator leather strap. The water resistance is 30 meters. We can find sapphire glass at the front and at the back.
Patek Philippe – 5146/1G-001 |
The next Patek Philippe watch is more universal in its design. I like that sort of watches, because you can wear such watch to the elegant creations but it is also suitable for a casual outfits. Superb white gold polished case with a 39mm of diameter with a cream dial. The Caliber 324 S IRM QA LU is a mechanical self-winding movement. It brings to life very sophisticated functions in this watch. We can see a moon phases, power reserve indicator at 12 o’clock, day and month indicated by hands at 9 o’clock and 3 o’clock. There is an also date window at 6 o’clock. The thing I really like in this watch is a wonderful gold “Wave” bracelet. The case back is visible through the sapphire glass. The water resistance in this watch is 30 meters.
Patek Philippe – Gondolo 5124G-001 |
A real watch with a vintage soul. Simple, legible dial in a “Vintage rose” colour with a gold applied hour markers with a small seconds dial. Beautifully polished case made of white gold with a dimensions of 33.4mm x 43mm. The case holds Caliber 25-21 REC PS manually wound, mechanical movement. There is a cambered sapphire glass at the case back. The watch goes with matching brown alligator leather strap.
Patek Philippe – 5124G-010 |
The one before last watch is a little bit extravagant. Classy and elegant with a tempting 18K rose gold case. The case has a 40mm of a diameter and hides a Caliber 324 S QA LU 24H/206 self-winding mechanical movement. The deep black dial contrasts amazingly with applied gold hands, indexes and an annual calendar, which is divided into three apertures showing : day (9 o’clock), date (12 o’clock) and month (2 o’clock). Besides an annual calendar we can see the moon phases situated inside a 24-hour counter subdial. Sapphire glass is coating the front and the back of this amazing watch. A shiny black alligator leather strap gives to a timepiece an additional grace.
Patek Philippe – Nautilus 5980/1AR-001 |
And finally the last watch I’d like to show you today. Namely, it’s Patek Philippe Nautilus. Great combination of a rose gold and a stainless steel to make this two-tone watch. A Caliber CH 28-520 C self-winding mechanical movement is enclosed in 40,5 mm rose gold case. Blue gradient dial harmonizes very well with gold indexes and hands with luminescent coating. The eye-catching feature is the pretty big subdial, which includes 30-minute and 12-hour monocounter at 6 o’clock. Of course, we can find a sapphire glass on both sides of the watch. The water resistance is 120 meters.
