  • Catalogue Essay

    Reference 5135 was launched in 2004 in yellow and white gold, and remained in production until 2010, with the platinum and pink gold versions added during the production run. It was available with three different dial configurations: the yellow gold version was fitted with a two-tone silver dial, the pink gold with a rose two-tone one, and the white gold and platinum versions could feature either a two-tone anthracite or silver dial, the latter exemplified by the present piece. The very generously proportioned case were made by Patek Philippe's in-house casemaker Atelier Réunis, and the dial by Stern Créations, also in-house.

    The present piece is offered by its original owner, complete of all its accessories down to the numbered sale tag, and even with a mint condition additional Patek Philippe strap. A truly full-set timepiece.

  • Artist Biography

    Patek Philippe

    Swiss • 1839

    Since its founding in 1839, this famous Geneva-based firm has been surprising its clientele with superbly crafted timepieces fitted with watchmaking's most prestigious complications. Traditional and conservative designs are found across Patek Philippe's watches made throughout their history — the utmost in understated elegance.

    Well-known for the Graves Supercomplication — a highly complicated pocket watch that was the world’s most complicated watch for 50 years — this family-owned brand has earned a reputation of excellence around the world. Patek's complicated vintage watches hold the highest number of world records for results achieved at auction compared with any other brand. For collectors, key models include the reference 1518, the world's first serially produced perpetual calendar chronograph, and its successor, the reference 2499. Other famous models include perpetual calendars such as the ref. 1526, ref. 3448 and 3450, chronographs such as the reference 130, 530 and 1463, as well as reference 1436 and 1563 split seconds chronographs. Patek is also well-known for their classically styled, time-only "Calatrava" dress watches, and the "Nautilus," an iconic luxury sports watch first introduced in 1976 as the reference 3700 that is still in production today.
