Made in 1997, the Patek Philippe reference 5057R produced in only 100 pieces celebrates the 25th anniversary of the firm’s prominent Singapore based retailer, Cortina. Cased in a new customized pink gold case with an attractive Clous de Paris bezel featuring short angled lugs. The timepiece is fitted with an unusual asymmetric dial configuration, the offset of the small seconds, power reserve and the moon phases streamlined into a cohesive visual rotation around the dial. Powered by the self-winding caliber 240 bearing the Geneva mark of quality seal, the highly attractive movement can be admired from the sapphire caseback on the reverse. Extremely well-preserved and hardly seen any wrist time, the hallmarks on the lugs remains perfectly crisp. The present example of a limited series is rare and incredibly elegant, the black and white dial dressed with sophisticated Roman numerals certainly goes perfectly well with a black tie dress code for an evening piano concerto.
