Ha! I wish!
I just bought a 5212A some months ago, so sadly another Patek will have to wait. I need a sports watch for skiing and sea holidays and I thought about the new titanium 42mm Blancpain FF, I’m hoping it’s cool enough to go to dinners as well sturdy enough to use during sporting activities, but the AD in Barcelona still did not receive the new watches. Waiting to see in metal to decide.
Hi 👋 All, Thanks to member brandon.c alerting us to a pocket watch with a unique dial made by THE enamel Queen Anita Porchet, Anita was then kind enough to share us with some amazing information on this piece !
Since this piece was signed "A Porchet", this signature means that she worked on this dial all on her own. Around 5 to 10% of her atelier's yearly production bears such signature. With others signed "AP", those dials are worked on by her and her team unde...
Thank you for sharing!!
Amazing piece…definitely will be a collector’s item on par with Suzanne Rohr’s collection from Patek. The details are vivid and reproduces the original very nicely!
amamzing piece
thank you for sharing and elaborating on the different techniques used for this amaizing piece.
Hi Dauster, yours truly self proclaimed enamel
slave/addict was mesmerized by this piece !
Thanks for sharing what a great work of art
Thanks for explaining different techniques as I had no idea.
Happy that you learned something ! Will you be
getting an enamel dial now given the poison injected into your bloodstream ?
Yes I would definitely like to have an
albeit cheaper, enamel dialed watch in the future. I was already thinking about it actually, it’s one of the must haves for me for a diverse collection

Darn ! I did not
poison you enough for you to want a Patek enamel dial. :-( Will have to write more post to deepen the poison for you !
Please do!
Although I’m already poisoned. Just wanting and being able to acquire are two different things, need to wait a liiittle bit more.
Will there ever be a down market?
These days it doesn’t seem so but who knows what the future holds. It seems to me I’ll need my wallet to be in tip top shape instead of waiting for a down market.
Lovely!
A masterpiece. However, am I the only one who also sees a crazy cat in the top part of the stem of the branch? Just inside the blue circle 😃 ...
Gordon, this is an incredible work of miniature art. I also appreciated your detailed analysis of the different techniques involved.
Extremely interesting and informative. Best, Patekova
My pleasure Patekova ! I could not help myself and had to contact THE Enamel Queen Anita Porchet to
understand fully about this grail and share the information & back story !
Thanks for sharing this amazing piece from the enamel master.
It’s eye opening to see 4 different enamel techniques in one time piece 😮
Wow! Amazing photos and information about this masterpiece
I wasn’t aware that this was based on an older painting. She did an amazing job recreating that painting while also adapting it for the medium of enamel. I was curious about the design of the tree branch as it has more of a surreal quality to it than the ...
Thanks brandon.c for alerting us to this piece ! Your truly self
proclaimed enamel addict/slave was immediately poisoned deeply and could not help but to find out more about this grail !
Incredible work of art
Thank you for your write up about AP. She is truly amazing. I was fortunate to own a piece of her artwork in my wrist.
Thanks cbb for your kind comments ! Are you now
"poisoned" deep enough so that you want another dial made by her ?
Thanks for sharing Gordan.
What a special masterpiece containing 4 different enamel techniques!
