The Swiss watchmaker's latest efforts will result in 297 unique timepieces.
Patek Philippe Only Made 58 of These Pink Gold Watches. This One Could Fetch $1.7 Million at Auction.
Here’s how it works: You pick a choice of three colors including Rosso Corsa , Green Racing and Bleu de France . Next, you choose a number between 1 and 99. Put them together and you’ve got a one-off. Louis Moinet will produce each color with any individual number only once. In other words, it will produce from 1 to 99 in Rosso Corsa, from 1 to 99 in Bleu de France and from 1 to 99 in Green Racing. So, in total Louis Moinet will make only 297 pieces in this collection which, by the way, does not make it a limited edition of 297 pieces, since each piece is different. It’s more like 297 watches that have a lot in common but which are all different.
The chosen color is applied to the rubber strap and the indexes on the first quarter of the tachymeter scale, and the hash marks, hands and numerals light up in the dark thanks to blue and green Super-LumiNova. The chosen number is not part of the functional index but appears as the background on the hour-and-minute dial at six o’clock. It is made with neoralithe, a translucent resin that is fired like enamel and takes a high polish.
