First launched in 2003, the Patek Philippe reference 5101 is defined by its distinctive, elongated stepped case, evoking the architecture of Art Deco wristwatches from the 1930s. The initial platinum execution was discontinued in 2009 to make way for later precious metal iterations.
A true mechanical marvel, reference 5101 houses two major complications within the strict spatial constraints of a rectangular movement and case. The manually wound cal. TO 28-20 REC 10J PS features twin mainspring barrels arranged in tandem to yield a 10-day power reserve, alongside a high-precision tourbillon assembly composed of 72 individual components.
Cased in hefty platinum and boasting a highly desirable salmon dial, the warm aesthetic is anchored by bold black Breguet numerals and matching feuille hands. Offered in excellent overall condition, the timepiece comes complete with its original certificate, presentation box, C.O.S.C. rating certificate and Extract from the Archives.
