Patek Philippe
Ref. 5370P-001
A factory single-sealed and rare platinum split-seconds chronograph wristwatch with black enamel dial, Breguet numerals, certificate of origin and presentation box
Full-Cataloguing
• Factory single sealed
• Full set of accessories
Introduced in 2015, the Patek Philippe ref. 5370 marked the manufacture’s return to the traditional split-seconds chronograph, combining a classically styled exterior with an entirely modern in-house movement. Its 41mm platinum case and striking black enamel dial with applied Breguet numerals give the watch a distinctly refined yet contemporary presence.
At its heart is the manually wound Calibre CHR 29-535 PS, Patek Philippe’s entirely in-house split-seconds chronograph movement. Among its technical innovations is an isolator mechanism that disengages the split-seconds wheel from the chronograph wheel, reducing friction and improving the smooth operation of the complication. The movement is further distinguished by its extensive hand-finishing, visible through the sapphire crystal caseback.
Produced in relatively small numbers, the ref. 5370 combines the aesthetic codes of Patek Philippe’s historic chronographs with one of the manufacture’s most sophisticated modern movements. The present example is in its factory single seal and comes with its full set of accessories.
