The 18k yellow gold Patek Philippe Gondolo is a neoclassical icon of haute horlogerie that broke the mold in the 1910s by abandoning the traditional round case in favor of an avant-garde barrel-shaped design. Historically linked to the exclusive commissions of the Gondolo collection, this piece stands out for its technically complex domed dials and its highly sought-after mesh bracelets, woven and soldered entirely by hand by master jewelers. In its mechanical versions, the level of luxury is such that even the internal rotor of the movement is crafted from solid gold to optimize winding.

When the description of a watch states “it works,” it means the watch is functioning. Since collector’s watches typically have delicate and complex mechanisms, the buyer is responsible for any general servicing, inspection, battery replacement, adjustment, or repair that may be necessary. We do not guarantee the perfect functioning of any watch. All photographs of our watches are original and have been taken by our photographers; in other words, we do not use stock photography, which is why the photographs are considered part of the cataloging.
