aunched in platinum in 2015, the Annual Calendar Chronograph Ref. 5905 brings together the combination of refined design and horological mastery, uniting two Patek Philippe complications treasured by connoisseurs:L a self-winding flyback chronograph and a patented Annual Calendar. The technical expertise involved in creating an Annual Calendar, which needs to be corrected only once a year and the flyback chronograph, make the Ref. 5905 amongst the most coveted models of men’s mechanical watches by many enthusiasts. The manufacture enriched its collection in 2019 with the Ref. 5905R, a new version of this model in a rose gold case with a brown sunburst dial shading gently to black at the periphery. The 42mm case is crafted entirely in-house, in the manufacture’s own ateliers and leaves nothing to be desired in terms of form and finissage. The dial’s design combines the technical look of an instrument for measuring short times with the timeless elegance of a Patek Philippe. It features three-face Dauphine hour and minute hands with a luminescent coating, rose gold applied hour-markers, and luminous five minute markers that assure excellent legibility in the dark. The sandblasted sweep seconds-hand counts the seconds for the chronograph, while the large subsidiary dial at 6 o’clock totalizes the minutes from 1 to 60. The three apertures for the day, the date and the month are arranged along an arc with a day/night indicator. The sapphire-crystal case back reveals the delicate craftsmanship of the self-winding mechanical movement caliber CH 28-520 QA 24H, comprising 402 parts. The Annual Calendar, based on the Patek Philippe patent of 1996, automatically takes account of months of 30 and 31 days, only one manual correction is required each year at the transition from February to March. The flyback chronograph epitomizes the role of this timepiece as a precision measuring instrument. The complication within the Ref. 5905R remains true to the traditional column wheel for handling the start, stop, and reset commands. However, it controls the clamp of a vertical disk clutch rather than the lever of a horizontal wheel clutch. This solution is characterized by a high degree of reliability. As the vertical clutch is virtually friction-free, the center chronograph hand also functions as a permanent seconds-hand.

WrightWineCompany_NCote-Sep2019-FinalPROOF.indd 1 09/09/2019 12:49 Photography: Roméo Balancourt PETROSSIAN: THE ULTIMATE DELICACY From Paris to New York, caviar has taken on the role of an elegant ambassador for luxury, thanks to Petrossian.

n the 1920s, brothers Melkoum and Mouchegh Petrossian introduced France to sturgeon roe. The Petrossian family’s destiny had been dedicated to caviar since Lazare Mailoff, an ancestor,I began running fishing concessions on the Caspian Sea in 1815. The success of their venture in France far exceeded their wildest dreams. In a country known throughout the world for its gastronomy, caviar became the deliciously exotic food that is as much in demand to this day. Petrossian has remained a family business, a French institution, for almost 100 years. The name is so bound to caviar that it has become synonymous with the delicacy. At Petrossian, the ancestral expertise has been passed down through the generations. The experts work in a hand-crafted haute couture spirit and the stars of the show are the fingers, eyes, nose and palate of the person who selects, tastes and refines the product. Selection starts by breathing in the caviar’s aroma. The grain’s shine, colour and, most importantly texture are then examined. The tester then listens to the caviar ‘sing’ and a grain of caviar is delicately fingered to test its firmness. Finally, the caviar is tasted, rolled around in the mouth like wine, to observe its complexity, the length of finish and to determine its potential. The Petrossians consider the party table as a theatre on which to stage the finest delicacies. As such, the limited edition Petrossian tins are hand packed, and each label hand lithographed and numbered. Petrossian has subsequently developed their collection introducing various caviars and other luxury products to its prestigious repertoire. But caviar lies at the heart of the Petrossian family, and at Northcote it is the ultimate choice for chefs Lisa Goodwin- Allen and Nigel Haworth. Nigel explains: “It is the finest caviar around. It is aged from three to 18 months, which makes each caviar have a unique flavour profile.”

Caviar Petrossian is based in the UK and distributed through their premises in London. Also available from and Petrossian corner at Bibendum, London.
