Baccarat crystal dome table clock

I never see Baccarat crystal dome table clock before. How do you think about this clock?

Looks like something my Grandmother had on her mantle.

Is this made by Patek?

I personally like the enamel dome clocks better. But these are special in a way because of the crystal.

I only like a few beautiful enamel clocks and they are almost impossible to have. I am not interested in The rest of enamel clocks. Maybe Crystal clock is another choice for me. I do not see crystal clock and can't judge how nice is the crystal clock.

I do not think Jamie can get what I am interested. They are very limited.

Jamie applies a enamel watch for me this year, but I have no idea can I get approved by Patek.

Not my taste. But if free I'd probably take it...just don't know where I'd put it. Probably end up in the garage.

Just stock up on some more leather portfolios and call it a day.

It's like a bad birdcage for a very expensive parrot.

Hope you get one soon. When Patek approves it will you get the chance to choose the dial?

Thank you.

I have no idea about the enamel watch and enamel table clock because I never have one within 8 years. I will not apply it anymore if I can't have one this year.

It's obviously a table clock versus mantle clock as it's accessirised with 2 very useful salt and pepper shakers! Only problem is that at a supper where this is plonked in the middle of the table you need more than a single salt & pepper set. People don't share .... I think I saw a pair of clicks sell a few years ago for about $120k. I saw one at my AD recently but think it was coloured crystal. Tell Jamie to do his magic. Forget the key rings and USB sticks you need a set of 6 salt and pepper shakers. Well I am guessing that's what they are!!

Nope, don't think many like from the replies (I certainly don't).

Too 'old world' for me.

BUT, if YOU like it buy it.

Way to expensive for what it is
I played with one in London
Together with khalid... we shared the same thoughts.... for that price you can buy much more interesting things
I believe the price was over 100k

It is very grandmotherly. I can appreciate the craftsmanship though.

I have no idea how it looks like by seeing the photo.

Maybe go for 5170P or 5131P instead.

Do you like 5271P with the red diamond?

I like this enamel clock, but Jamie can't offer this to me. Pictures from internet.
