Patek Philippe Calatrava Enamel American Car – 5089G-149

Patek Philippe 5089G-149 “American Beauties” is a dazzling tribute to American nostalgia, blending horological mastery with miniature enamel artistry in one of the brand’s most exclusive Rare Handcrafts creations. This reference belongs to the Calatrava collection and features a 27.5mm case in 18k white gold, designed with understated elegance to let the dial take center stage. The dial showcases a cloisonné enamel painting of a classic orange American convertible parked by a beachside boulevard, complete with palm trees, ocean waves, and a sunlit horizon a vivid homage to California’s golden age of cruising culture. The enamel work is executed entirely by hand, using fine gold wires and multiple firings to achieve its rich color and depth, making each piece subtly unique. Inside, the watch is powered by the ultra-thin self-winding caliber 240, visible through a sapphire crystal caseback, and offering hours and minutes with quiet precision. The watch is paired with a hand-stitched orange alligator leather strap and secured by an 18k white gold pin buckle, echoing the dial’s vibrant palette. With 30 meters of water resistance and a slim 8mm profile, the 5089G-149 is as wearable as it is collectible.
