Catalogue Essay
Manufactured in very limited numbers, the Patek Philippe reference 5971 is set with 36 flawless rare white Top Wesselton baguette-cut diamonds weighing approximately 4 carats in total. Seldom seen at auction, the reference is discontinued today and replaced by the 5271. The refined reference combines watching making most sought after complications including perpetual calendar, chronograph, moon phases, 24 hours and leap year indicator. Still factory sealed and never been used, the present watch is a pristine example that brings together mechanical excellence and aesthetic appeal.
