18K rose gold Limited Edition 'Pagoda' with silvered dial, made and sold 1997
To celebrate the inauguration of the new workshops in Geneva, Patek Philippe presented a series of limited edition watches for men and women. According to the 1997 brochure: “For the men’s ref. 5500, 1,100 were made in 18K yellow gold with leaf hands of oxidized gold and applied Roman numerals in gold on a champagne-colored dial; 500 in 18K rose gold with a silvered dial in a vertically brushed satin finish with rose leaf hands and Roman numerals; 250 in 18K white gold with a rose-colored dial and Roman numerals in polished white gold; and 150 in platinum with its leaf hands and applied Roman numerals in white gold against a black dial. Each dial featured a distinctive seconds hand with a rectangular track at 6 o’clock. Once the production was completed, the dies to make the cases for each reference were destroyed.
