RARE PATEK PHILIPPE LA FLAMME MODEL 4806When we call a watch a showstopper, we mean this theatrical beauty by Patek Philippe. The bracelet, a cascade of interlocking gold flames set with diamonds, is crowned by pear shaped emeralds that shimmer like dew drops in spring. The bracelet narrows toward a cushion shaped case of pav diamonds, the bezel patterned with stones that turn the surface into its own brilliant landscape. The diamond pav dial is marked by emeralds, meant to mark the hours,

panthers and mythic creatures that played against its more familiar floral clips and ballerina brooches
