Overview
A gem-set Calatrava around an enamel dial
The Patek Philippe Rare Handcrafts Green-winged Macaw, reference 5077/211R-001, a Calatrava in rose gold with a cloisonné enamel and miniature-painted dial of the macaw and rhodolites, topazes, rubies, tsavorites and diamonds on the bezel, lugs and buckle, on a shiny cherry red alligator strap. Self-winding calibre 240; 38 mm, 8.3 mm high.
The dial of 5077/211R-001 is a green-winged macaw, the parrot of the forests and cliffs of northern South America, in Grand Feu cloisonné enamel. The plumage took about 39 cm of gold wire (~0.16 g); the enameller worked from a palette of semi-opaque, transparent and opaque enamels in 54 colours and finished the gradations and the play of light with 10 colours of miniature painting on enamel. Each dial took about 8 firings at 780°C to 850°C. The bezel and lugs are set with 44 rhodolites (0.47 ct), 30 topazes (0.24 ct), 20 rubies (0.18 ct) and 18 tsavorites (0.13 ct), the buckle with 10 diamonds (0.02 ct), 14 rhodolites (0.22 ct) and 5 rubies (0.06 ct); Patek Philippe totals them at 10 diamonds (0.02 ct), 58 rhodolites (0.69 ct), 30 topazes (0.24 ct), 25 rubies (0.24 ct) and 18 tsavorites (0.13 ct). Patek Philippe describes the case as humidity- and dust-protected only, not water-resistant. Patek Philippe presents it as a limited edition of ten watches, on a shiny cherry red alligator strap.
The reference 5077 is the Calatrava of Patek Philippe's Rare Handcrafts collection: a round case 38 mm across and 8.3 mm high, with a sapphire crystal back and a bezel, lugs and prong buckle set with stones chosen to the palette of the dial. Dauphine-style hands in the case metal show the hours and minutes.
The movement is the self-winding calibre 240, which Patek Philippe lists as ultra-thin: 27.5 mm across and 2.53 mm high, with 152 parts and 27 jewels, wound by a 22K gold minirotor set off-centre in the movement rather than a full rotor turning above it. It runs at 21,600 semi-oscillations an hour on a Gyromax® balance with a Spiromax® balance spring, has a power reserve of at least 48 hours and carries the Patek Philippe Seal. It is on view through the sapphire crystal back — the one part of the watch, beside the dial, that Patek Philippe invites the wearer to look at.
For collectors
Patek Philippe matches the stones on the bezel and lugs to the palette of the enamel — a gradation of sapphires for a bird's plumage, baguettes of two colours around a butterfly, diamonds around engraved lettering — and the strap is chosen to the same palette.
