Catalogue Essay
The Patek Philippe reference 5524 was first introduced to the public in Baselworld 2015. Taking inspiration from the past, it was inspired by the manufacture's pilot watches of the 1930s but was extremely sporty in nature: it displayed an incredibly modern dial, along with an enlarged case size. Originally introduced to the market only in white gold, Patek Philippe launched the pink gold version, such as the present example, with a stunning bronze dial in 2018 Baselworld.
To date, only one other iteration of the present example has appeared on the auction market, underscoring the rarity of this timepiece.
