Royale auction: Patek Philippe 7042 - 100R - Gondolo

Patek Philippe 7042 - 100R - Gondolo

 

With its rectangular, tonneau or "cushion" cases, the Gondolo collection brings together the majority of Patek Philippe "shaped" watches, i.e. those that are not circular. With their vigorous lines, timeless style and pure geometry, these models offer a contemporary reinterpretation of the Art Deco spirit, which embodies one of Patek Philippe's golden ages. In particular, the factory is dedicated to the re-edition of historical pieces from its heritage, present in the collections of the Patek Philippe Museum and which it makes evolve subtly.
