Catalogue Essay
Offered without reserve and consigned by its original owner, this reference 5990 is preserved in almost like-new condition. It is complete with its Patek Philippe Certificate of Origin dated February 13, 2015, additional links, setting pin, product literature, leather wallet, presentation box and outer packaging.

Known as the Nautilus Travel Time Chronograph, reference 5990 features a bevy of complications. The watch displays two time zones, as well as the date in addition to the flyback chronograph complication. There are furthermore "Home" and "Local" day/night indicators at 3 and 9 o’clock.

Introduced in 2014 and still in production today, reference 5990 is extremely sought-after. Consequently, it is incredibly difficult to obtain one at a Patek Philippe retailer and takes years of waiting to be allocated one.
