Catalogue Essay
- Produced between 2012 and 2019, the present ref. 5235G stands out as a particularly intriguing release among modern Patek Philippe watches. Its sharp, technical appearance is heavily influenced by the vintage ref. 3448 Perpetual Calendar’s case design, which debuted in 1962.

- Featuring a three-tone dial and navy blue numerals, the watch offers incredible symmetry and legibility. Powering the timepiece is Patek Philippe’s ultra-thin automatic caliber 31-260 REG QA. The rhodium-plated movement showcases a distinctive regulator-style architecture, visible through the sapphire display caseback.

- Notably, this caliber integrates advanced components, including a silicon escape wheel, anchor, and balance spring. These elements contribute to the movement's antimagnetic and shock-resistant properties, enhancing long-term reliability and precision. The layout is both unconventional and elegant, exemplifying Patek Philippe’s expertise in merging technical sophistication with aesthetic appeal.

- In 2019, Patek Philippe officially discontinued the ref. 5235 in white gold, replacing it with a pink gold version featuring a black outer track, subsidiary dials, and a dark grey dial. It remains highly sought after for its clean, modern aesthetic and rarity. Offered in excellent overall condition, the present circa 2017 example comes with its Certificate of Origin from Japan.

Patek Philippe

Swiss | 1839

Since its founding in 1839, this famous Geneva-based firm has been surprising its clientele with superbly crafted timepieces fitted with watchmaking's most prestigious complications. Traditional and conservative designs are found across Patek Philippe's watches made throughout their history — the utmost in understated elegance.

Well-known for the Graves Supercomplication — a highly complicated pocket watch that was the world’s most complicated watch for 50 years — this family-owned brand has earned a reputation of excellence around the world. Patek's complicated vintage watches hold the highest number of world records for results achieved at auction compared with any other brand. For collectors, key models include the reference 1518, the world's first serially produced perpetual calendar chronograph, and its successor, the reference 2499. Other famous models include perpetual calendars such as the ref. 1526, ref. 3448 and 3450, chronographs such as the reference 130, 530 and 1463, as well as reference 1436 and 1563 split seconds chronographs. Patek is also well-known for their classically styled, time-only "Calatrava" dress watches, and the "Nautilus," an iconic luxury sports watch first introduced in 1976 as the reference 3700 that is still in production today.
