At Patek Philippe, time is transmitted as much as it is measured. An exceptional Geneva company, it embodies a watchmaking tradition, precision and heritage, where each watch seems to have been to pass through the generations with the same discreet elegance. The model presented here, inspired by the purity of the first Calatrava models, is distinguished by its round case, its small seconds at 6 o'clock and its aesthetic reduced to essentials. A smart, classic and timeless watch. General condition: Fair. Carbon fibre dial: Excellent condition. Silvered hands and Arabic numerals: Very good condition, micro scratches and marks. Glass: Good condition, numerous micro-scratches mainly visible with a magnifying glass. Case: Average condition, numerous scratches and pronounced signs of use. 750 white gold Badollet folding clasp: Good condition, frequent scratches from use. Badollet strap in black crocodile leather: Good condition, wear to the leather. Stains and discolouration on the inside. The watch was in working order at the time of writing. This fact must be considered in relation to its age. We do not guarantee its future operation. It has not been tested over a long period and we therefore cannot guarantee the accuracy of the movement or the power reserve. Services or restorations may have been carried out on the entire watch, resulting in the replacement of parts that may not be original (dial, hands, parts of the movement, bracelet, etc.). As the watch has been opened, we cannot guarantee that it is water-resistant. Last service performed on 12/10/2022 according to the Badollet service logbook. Next recommended service in October 2027. Crystalball Bamboo de Badollet : Unique piece Originally founded in Geneva in 1635 by master watchmaker Pierre III Badollet, the Badollet dynasty has spanned the centuries, making its mark on the history of Swiss precision. In 1872, the Manufacture won the first three places in the very first chronometer setting competition organised by the Geneva Observatory. After dying out at the beginning of the 20th century, the brand was relaunched in the 2000s with a clear philosophy: to aim for the exceptional and produce timepieces of absolute rarity. Today, Badollet is positioned in the ultra-luxury segment with collections that focus almost exclusively on the queen complication: the tourbillon. Each creation is entirely designed, decorated and assembled by hand in its workshops, guaranteeing total exclusivity and a level of finishing worthy of the greatest master craftsmen of the Geneva factory. A unique piece from the Crystalball Bamboo collection, this timepiece features a sculpted and engraved movement inspired by Asian bamboo structures. This exclusive creation combines a white gold case, personalised by discreet onyx inserts, with a modern carbon fibre dial.
