Catalogue Essay
Introduced in 2011, the reference 5298 perpetuates the heritage of the classic Patek Philippe Calatrava collection with its simple and elegant design.

The present platinum example is embellished with 44 baguette diamonds on the bezel, totaling 3.87 carats. Fitted with a black date wheel, the flawless black lacquered dial matches seamlessly with the dazzling baguette and square-cut diamond indexes. The watch is also complemented by a platinum diamond-set Patek Philippe Henri Stern pin buckle, and is adorned with a small flawless diamond between the lugs at 6 o’clock, marking it as a Patek Philippe platinum watch.

The reference 5298 remained in Patek Philippe’s catalogue until 2016. To the best of our knowledge, only approximately 5 examples of reference 5298P with a black dial have appeared publicly on the market to date, attesting to the rarity of this discontinued reference.

Preserved in exceptional condition, and complete with full set of original accessories, the present timepiece is precisely the perfect dress watch for the modern watch connoisseur.
