Lot of things to love about that piece. The hands were a perfect choice for the dial.

The story behind the piece is actually quite interesting. The picture is an adaptation from a poster advertising the event in 1948. The positioning is along the straight after the hairpin corner and looks back over the lake, the fountain on the left, cathedral on the right and between them the Patek manufacture (now the salon). Car 2 is a Ferrari 166/f2 which came third driven by Rayond Sommer, the other car is a Maserati (they finished 1st and 2nd).
All mixed with a bit of poetic license and artistry.

Oh my goodness, I was recently on the 3 days Patek factory tour and met the dial painter. Thank you for sharing this amazing piece.
