Patek Philippe’s Rare Handcrafts 2025 collection is a masterclass in the art of storytelling through enamel, engraving, and fine craftsmanship. Unveiled in Geneva at the Maison’s historic Rue du Rhône salons, the collection showcases 78 timepieces across wristwatches, pocket watches, and dome table clocks, each one a living canvas that brings together the brand’s savoir-faire with artistic métiers passed down through generations.
Pocket Watches: Where Legacy Lives
Provence
A lavender dream in miniature, this white gold pocket watch uses cloisonné, flinqué, and miniature enamel painting to recreate the iconic fields of Provence. A yellow gold bee and lavender-carved charoite crystal base bring the scent and spirit of the South of France to life.
Flowers and Insects
Delicate and poetic, this piece transforms a botanical bouquet into a narrative of hidden life. Butterflies, caterpillars, and grasshoppers emerge in 22 enamel firings. The watch is presented on an ebony base inlaid with radiant red spinels.
Rialto Bridge
A tribute to Venice’s most iconic landmark, this pocket watch in white gold features the Rialto Bridge rendered in grisaille enamel with touches of gold powder and miniature painting. The architecture and shimmering canal waters feel frozen in time, with the rich blue caseback adorned in paillonné enamel for added drama.
Wristwatches: Wearable Masterpieces
Zodiac Series
Each of the twelve white gold Calatrava watches is dedicated to a zodiac sign, brought to life through cloisonné, grisaille, and paillonné enamel. These celestial canvases are framed by Clous de Paris bezels and feature hands engraved with sun and moon motifs.
Macaw on a Blue Ground
A riot of color and craftsmanship. The macaw’s plumage is captured in cloisonné enamel, set with over 140 gemstones including diamonds, yellow sapphires, and blue topazes. Tropical vibrance on the wrist.
Burmese Albino Python
Dramatic yet refined, this piece depicts the curves of a python in soft ivory and gold cloisonné enamel. A rare creature immortalized in a watch that feels bold, sculptural, and tactile.
Rose Vines
Soft shades of pink and green come alive in this floral wristwatch, where golden vines weave around blooming roses in cloisonné enamel. Romantic and elegant, it captures the delicate strength of nature in full bloom.
Five Weeks in a Balloon
A tribute to Jules Verne’s spirit of adventure, this white gold piece presents an African landscape from above—balloon, elephant, and all—crafted in enamel so vivid, it feels lifted from a storybook.
Dome Table Clocks: Horological Sculpture at Its Finest
Amazon Rainforest
A 360-degree jungle of enamel artistry. With 59 enamel tones and over 17 meters of gold wire, this dome clock depicts serpents, orchids, jaguars, and tropical foliage, each panel fired up to 14 times. A wild, living sculpture of light and color.
Nautilus
Inspired by Verne’s legendary submarine, this piece combines cloisonné and grisaille enamel to paint an underwater narrative in rich marine tones. It’s a poetic dive into mystery and exploration.
The Patek Waltz
An ode to music, movement, and memory, this dome clock commemorates a 1907 waltz dedicated to Patek Philippe’s Brazilian partner Gondolo & Labouriau. Paillonné and cloisonné enamel, with engraved accents, make it a lyrical visual sonata.
Geneva Harbor
A first for Patek Philippe, this dome clock is entirely crafted in wood marquetry. Over 2,100 tiny veneer parts from 41 species of wood recreate a sepia-toned lakeside view of Geneva—a meditative blend of precision and poetry.
