Patek Philippe has just dropped a new Nautilus Ref. 5711 with a very famous bright blue dial. The coveted model was discontinued earlier in the year in April and has been given a Tiffany & Co. makeover with this launch. Limited to 170 pieces priced at US$52,635.
The watch symbolises the partnership between the New York jeweller and Swiss watchmaker which dates back to 170 years (coinciding with the number of pieces available). The two brands were founded within two years of each other, Tiffany & Co. in 1837 and Patek Philippe in 1839. Several years later in 1851, they forged a partnership that would make Tiffany & Co. the first official Patek Philippe retailer in the United States.
To celebrate their friendship, Patek Philippe created several limited-edition models for Tiffany & Co. since the beginning of the 2000s and the jeweller is the only retailer in the world to be featured on a Patek Philippe dial.
The latest version of the watch is signed by both brands and it is also marked with “170th Anniversary 1851-2021 Tiffany & Co. – Patek Philippe” on the sapphire-crystal case back. It also, very sneakily, has Tiffany’s parent company, LVMH, hidden inside the last digit of “2021”. Inside the case back is the self-winding calibre 26-330 SC sitting atop an integrated steel bracelet with hand-crafted, satin-finished, and polished links.
The dial of this Patek Philippe x Tiffany & Co. Nautilus is sure to be a standout. This ultra-exclusive and coveted model of the watch will be available only at Tiffany boutiques in New York, Beverly Hills and San Francisco. Thankfully, travel seems to be slowly coming back and this could be your only chance to land yourself a piece of the exclusive watch.
Also in the world of collaborations, Baccarat teamed up with the late Virgil Abloh and Louis Vuitton for two separate collaborations. Abloh and Baccarat created a new collection called, “Crystal Clear”. It is a limited-edition collection consisting of a chandelier, four vases, and a signature glass complete with a lid and straw.
Baccarat has also teamed up with Louis Vuitton Les Parfums to present the, also limited-edition, “Ultimate Bottle” created by Marc Newson in Baccarat’s signature crystal. The Ultimate Bottle will be available for three of the Les Parfums fragrances: Rose des Vents, Matière Noire, and L’Immensité.
