  • Catalogue Essay

    Patek Philippe celebrated its 175th anniversary in 2014 by releasing a collection of six limited edition timepieces, all which highlighted the manufacture's technical skill and quality of workmanship. Each release garnered excitement and praise from collectors. Among them was the reference 5275P- a modern chiming Jump Hour wristwatch that took four years of research and development and four patents to create. Paying homage to the 1989 anniversary Jump Hour reference 3969, the 21st century example was bold and modern with a platinum engraved case and dial, as well as a chime at the top of the hour. Patek Philippe produced only 175 examples, and the watch was the epitome of complications from their historical past, and elegant aesthetic design in the tonneau-shaped case.

    Amongst watch enthusiast the new caliber 32-650 HGS PS was an amazing feat of technology, with the jump hour requiring the power and energy to create the functions to happen, and energy management the heart of the movement. The manually wound 48 hour caliber allowed the time to “jump” at the hour, as well as the minutes and seconds. Energy was stored and released with the lever and wolf’s tooth winding made from Silinvar, which is extremely light and almost friction free, allowing for little energy loss with time “jumping” and not a constant movement.

    The present example is fresh to the market and preserved in like-new condition. The reference 5275P is known for its grand and crisp chiming mechanism, which is perfectly synchronised to the time. Accompanied with certificate of origin, commemorative medal, attestation and presentation box, the watch is a wonderful tribute to the brand and their excellence in movement design and manufacture.
