Patek enjoyed a fruitful partnership with the Brazilian retailer, Gondolo \u0026amp; Labouriau, for almost 60 years — from that, the Gondolo collection was born. Veering away from the traditional aesthetics of round-cased watches, the Gondolo contains a wide variety of complications in tonneau-shaped cases that explore a more adventurous side of Patek Phillipe’s watchmaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake this ladies’ Gondolo ref. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e4866\/1J-001\u003c\/span\u003e, for example. Housed in a 25mm square 18K yellow gold case with a sapphire crystal and a signed crown, it features a beautiful black dial with Roman cardinal indexes, and a simply marvelous multi link yellow gold bracelet integrating directly into the watch at the lugs.
