Catalogue Essay
Reference 5004 was first introduced in 1996 and the present white gold example was manufactured in that very first year. It has been preserved in excellent overall condition, still retaining crisp gold marks under the lugs, which are nicely fluted. The dial is in immaculate condition, and the watch still retains all original accessories.
Reference 5004 joins the ranks of its other contemporary colleagues such as the reference 5016, 5013 and 3970 and 3939. The reference was discontinued in 2012 and has an increasing demand and popularity amongst collectors whom are new to Patek Philippe or veterans who have been collecting for 30 years.
