Catalogue Essay
The present Patek Philippe reference 5057R Cortina is the only piece made for an Asian retailer found in this Double Signed auction.

Made in 1997 in only 100 pieces in pink gold to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Patek Philippe’s Singapore based retailer Cortina, the present reference 5057 is a medium complication featuring a power reserve display at 10, date and moonphase between 7 and 8 as well as an offset seconds subdial between 4 and 5 o’clock.

Even though these features already existed in Patek Philippe watches, notably the reference 5054, Patek Philippe created a new case design for this limited edition, featuring short angled lugs and a beautiful guilloché bezel with Clous de Paris motif.

Giving life to the watch is Patek Philippe’s automatic micro rotor cal 240PS IRM G LU bearing the prestigious Geneva seal.

In very attractive condition the watch has hardly seen any wrist time and the gold hallmarks on the lugs are perfectly crisp. Presented full set with Attestation of Limited Edition, Certificate of Origin, box and product literature the present watch will certainly delight the esthete.
