In a heartwarming display of corporate philanthropy, Patek Philippe has donated a one-of-a-kind steel Nautilus watch and matching cufflinks to support Children Action, a Swiss charity dedicated to improving the lives of disadvantaged children globally. The pieces, which will be auctioned at the charity’s annual gala on November 25, 2024, in Geneva, feature exquisite hand-engraved Maori-inspired motifs. The Nautilus reference 5711/1500A is particularly special, with its sapphire caseback engraved with the inscription “Children Action 2024.”
The accompanying cufflinks also boast intricate hand-engraving and a sophisticated charcoal gray sunburst center. The auction will be led by Aurel Bacs of Phillips Bacs & Russo and is expected to attract high-profile philanthropists, celebrities, and business leaders.
The event will raise funds for Children Action, a nonprofit founded in 1994 by Denis von der Weid, which provides medical care, education, mental health support, and legal protection to vulnerable children, particularly in developing countries.
Patek Philippe’s generous donation underscores the brand’s commitment to charitable causes, combining its renowned craftsmanship with a meaningful cause. The gala offers a chance for collectors and philanthropists alike to acquire a piece of luxury while supporting a noble mission.
