Catalogue Essay
The reference 5320G combines inspiration from the brand’s historic past with a modern aesthetic. At first glance, one notices the unusual ivory hued lacquered dial with a vintage appeal, and its symmetrical dial layout, featuring classic day and month apertures above the signature with the subsidiary dial positioned at 6 o’clock displaying the date and moon phase. The three-tiered, stepped lug case takes inspiration from the 1940s chronometer reference 2405 adding an Art Deco aura to this modern timepiece.
The present example is one of eight known to the market, and offered for the first time at auction. The watch is in excellent overall condition and accompanied by its Certificate of Origin dated 2021, presentation box, setting pin, and hang tag. The reference 5320G is a contemporary yet classic perpetual calendar paying homage to Patek Philippe’s great models of the mid-20th century.
