Appearing on the market for the first time, this Patek Philippe solar dome clock is far more than a timepiece. Deeply intertwined with the life and legacy of Léopold Sédar Senghor, it reflects the enduring influence of one of the 20th century’s most significant intellectual and political figures.
Originating from a private source closely connected to Senghor’s household, it is entirely handmade and hand-decorated, requiring more than 2,000 hours of meticulous craftsmanship by three master artisans.
