The latest project by Swiss independent watchmaking workshop Artisans de Genève is a Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711 reimagined with an ice blue sapphire openworked dial.

Known for its incredible bespoke services in customizing prestigious timepieces, Artisans de Genève projects are committed to re-telling their clients’ stories. Entitled “Musher,” this cool-hued Nautilus draws inspiration from its owner’s upbringing and his close emotional connection to nature.

While the original case and bracelet were kept, the entire movement, dial and bezel were completely reimagined and modified. Following the client’s initial request for an openworked dial, the workshop went on to skeletonize its movement. In capturing the calmness and serenity in nature, the dial plate is crafted from a blue sapphire, accompanied by gray-gold indices. The white gold bezel is embedded with hand-crafted blue sapphires that echo the brilliance of its new dial.

Take a closer look at the bespoke time-teller in the gallery above. The cost for the “Musher” project rounded up to 82,500 CHF (approximately $93,970 USD). To read more about the project’s process and story, head over to its dedicated webpage on Artisans de Genève’s website.
