Catalogue Essay
The Patek Philippe reference 5004 features a split-seconds chronograph function that allows simultaneous timing of two events, it was the first serially produced Patek Philippe perpetual calendar model to feature such complications.
Not too small nor too large, the watch measures an elegant 36mm diameter and shares the aesthetics of the long lineage of perpetual calendar chronographs such as the reference 3970 and the iconic references 2499 and 1518. Yet, its stepped case is slightly thicker than its predecessors to accommodate the split-second complication, giving the watch a contemporary presence to the wrist.
Well-defined fluted lugs, crisp hallmarks, and the inclusion of its original certificate of origin and solid caseback, this superb 5004J sold in 2006 at Roberto Joyero, a Spanish authorized dealer of Patek Philippe is a top quality example of the reference for the connoisseur.
