  • Catalogue Essay

    The Patek Philippe ref. 5235R was launched in 2019. This pink gold reference was made as a substitute for the discontinued ref. 5235G, the firm’s foremost regulator style wristwatch with an integrated annual calendar complication, only available in white gold initially.

    The aesthetics of this timepiece is very well executed. Featuring a pink gold case with a dark, seductive two-tone dial, the ref. 5235R is warm and inviting in contrast to its cool and crisp white gold older sibling. Complemented by the texturized graphite center with a vertical satin finish, the black sub-dials and outer track are accentuated by the pink gold accents on the dial. From its colour treatments to the brushed effect detail, the dial is given a bold appearance that plays with light in a captivating manner.

    The ref. 5235R is a suave gentleman’s watch- framed by its distinctive angular lugs, brushed case band and crisp edges. Modern and technically sound, the movement was uniquely designed for the Annual Calendar Regulator, housing three silicon components developed by the Advanced Research department: a silicon escape wheel, a silicon anchor and a silicon balance spring.

    Offered at a Phillips Auction for the first time, the present Patek Philippe ref. 5235R is offered in excellent condition and is complete with its full set of original accessories.

    Patek Philippe

    Swiss • 1839

    Since its founding in 1839, this famous Geneva-based firm has been surprising its clientele with superbly crafted timepieces fitted with watchmaking's most prestigious complications. Traditional and conservative designs are found across Patek Philippe's watches made throughout their history — the utmost in understated elegance.

    Well-known for the Graves Supercomplication — a highly complicated pocket watch that was the world’s most complicated watch for 50 years — this family-owned brand has earned a reputation of excellence around the world. Patek's complicated vintage watches hold the highest number of world records for results achieved at auction compared with any other brand. For collectors, key models include the reference 1518, the world's first serially produced perpetual calendar chronograph, and its successor, the reference 2499. Other famous models include perpetual calendars such as the ref. 1526, ref. 3448 and 3450, chronographs such as the reference 130, 530 and 1463, as well as reference 1436 and 1563 split seconds chronographs. Patek is also well-known for their classically styled, time-only "Calatrava" dress watches, and the "Nautilus," an iconic luxury sports watch first introduced in 1976 as the reference 3700 that is still in production today.
