With Patek Philippe Certificate of Origin stamped by Oeding-Erdel and dated 16 July 2015, product literature, leather pouch, sales tag, fitted presentation box, outer packaging and service box.
This watch is offered in absolutely mint condition and still factory sealed.
Named "Cygne Blanc" or White Swan, the present watch is part of Patek Philippes Rare Handcraft collection. Depicting a poised and majestic white swan in the foreground on Lac Leman and a miniature view of a sailboat, the Salève and the quais of Geneva in the background where the headquarters of Patek Philippe are. These main features are formed via the cloisonné method in a mosaic of interwoven colours cast over a chased/engraved platform that brings contrast, definition and a sense of reality to the swan and the surroundings. This theme of Lac Leman and sailing are known to be favorites of Henri Stern himself.
The extraordinary quality of the enamel, clean calatrava-style case design and diamond-setting makes this an elegant collector's piece.
