Notes

Patek Philippe has always shown great creativity in its designs and variety of clocks especially in the 1960's and 1970's. Using a huge variety of shapes and materials, this particularly funky design has its panels made using oxidation on copper as stated in the extract from the archives and is further enhanced by the orange accents on the hands and indexes. This is the first time Antiquorum has offered a clock featuring this design indicating it may have only been made in a few examples at most.
