Catalogue Essay
Taking inspiration from the brand’s famous 10-day tourbillon reference 5101, the ref. 5124 debuted in 2008 as part of the Patek Philippe’s gondolo collection with an iconic elongated sculpted stepped case. Designed with an arched case, the timepiece sits extremely well on the wrist. Produced in yellow and white gold, the model was fitted with a choice of opaline, salmon and sunburst blue dial like the present example.

A superbly versatile watch, the present reference 5124G with a rich blue dial was a colourway debuted in Basel world 2015. Boasting a sportier look from its silbings, the timepiece features a pair of refined faceted Dauphine hands and matching white gold markers. It is also the only version designed with an opaline silver minute track that gives the reference a modern touch.

Beating within is the calibre 25-21 REC PS first released with the ref. 5098. Rectangularly shaped (REC) and fitted with a small seconds (PS) function, the movement takes design cues from the historic calibre 9-90 as well the Chronometro Gondolo movement of the early 20th century.

Preserved in excellent overall condition and accompanied by its Certificate of Origin and original accessories, the ref. 5124 is an understated piece that deserved more attention.
