The Patek Philippe reference 5101 is most commonly found cased in platinum with a salmon dial. The reference was first introduced in 2003, and was immediately successful due to its large stepped case and the unusual design for Patek Philippe at the time. The watch at first glance would appear to be a large rectangular watch. However, when looking at the movement, we are presented with a tourbillon carriage, very subtly rotating on its axis.

In later years, Patek has since introduced pink gold, yellow gold and white gold examples to compliment the 10 days Tourbillon's production. For the first time, we can see the 10 Day Tourbillon cased in white gold but with a highly decorated and engraved by hand case. This engraving is part of Patek Philippe's rare hand crafts series that specializes in such case designs and enamel work. Due to the very large stepped case, the engraving is magnificent and truly transforms this watch into something unique and very captivating.

For the first time ever at auction, this extremely rare watch is offered like new, and complete with all accessories.
