- Introduced at Baselworld in 2016, the white gold reference 5930 combined two utilitarian and classic complications from Patek Philippe: a chronograph and world time mechanism. Both extremely useful for the modern globe trotter, the new model drew inspiration from a unique reference 1415 HU (“heures universelles”) with pulsations scale from 1940. In 2022, the brand reinterpreted the reference with the upgraded reference 5935A, a sporty stainless steel version and desirable salmon dial with carbon-patterned center and anthracite hands.
-The reference 5935A follows Patek Philippe’s tradition of manufacturing some of the finest chronograph timepieces offered in the market, from the early reference 130, to the classic waterproof 1463, along with their famed line of perpetual calendar chronographs. This new generation of timepiece embodies traditional Swiss horology with innovative calibers creating a contemporary and sophisticated world time flyback chronograph.
-The reference 5935A is destined to become a classic timepiece created for 21st century tastes and lifestyles. The present watch is offered for the first time at auction by the original owner and is preserved in like-new condition and complete with its full suite of accessories.
