Catalogue Essay
First released in 2010, the reference 5160 was produced in yellow, pink and white gold. The present pink gold version with Roman numerals was launched in 2013 followed by the white gold iteration featuring Breguet numerals.
The design of the present timepiece is elevated by the exquisite hand-engravings on the case, with arabesque motifs reminiscent of the Belle Époque era. The intricate craftsmanship required for the case is only achievable by a few skilled artisans, leading to the extremely limited production of the model. Seamlessly matching the abstract floral design of the case, the dial features an engraved center surrounded by the retrograde date sector and moon phases aperture. The Roman numerals complements the dial perfectly and give the watch a classic look.
Recently unsealed by the original owner, the present example is virtually "new old stock". The case and buckle are preserved in absolutely pristine condition, and the surface exhibits a beautiful layer of patina, adding more charm to this stunning and charismatic timepiece. It is further accompanied by its complete set of original certificate and presentation box. This splendid timepiece is a true heritage wristwatch, with its superbly engraved case and retrograde perpetual calendar complication, it is an homage to both artistic craftsmanship and modern horology.
