Catalogue Essay
The successor to the superb reference 5970, the 5270 was a truly ground-breaking new chapter in the brand’s storied line of perpetual calendar chronographs. Launched in 2011, it was Patek Philippe’s very first perpetual calendar chronograph with a fully in-house movement, the caliber 29-535, marking a historical transition from the previous Lemania era.
Originally introduced in an algid white gold version with silvered dial, the model soon saw the addition of a number of variations, including pink gold ones (first seen in 2015) and platinum examples (2018). Peculiarly, however, for nearly a decade since its introduction no yellow gold variation was introduced. The public had to wait until 2020 to see the appearance of what might be the most “classically inspired” - as it retraces the aesthetics most usually seen in ancestor references 1518, 2499 and 3970 - iteration of the model: yellow gold with silvered dial and applied yellow gold numerals.
Offered in superb condition and complete with its original accessories, this is a proposition for the connoisseur of Patek Phillippe looking to add a timeless classic to her or his collection.
