Catalogue Essay
The reference 5930 merges two of Patek Philippe’s most coveted and desirable complications: a worldtime with a chronograph.
Patek Philippe has a long history with worldtime watches. It was in fact one of the very first brands to embrace this complication as early as the beginning of the 1930s.
In 1940 Patek Philippe created a unique reference 1415 HU in yellow gold where the worldtime saw the addition of a chronograph. Most probably made on special order, the uniting of these two complications as a serially made timepiece did not see the light of day until 2016 with the presentation of reference 5930, which also happens to have a flyback function.
Produced so far exclusively in white gold, it strikes the beholder with the elegant design of its dial. A discreet silver fixed ring with the chronograph fifth of a second divisions has been added between the mobile city and 24-hour rings, and the 30 minutes counter is placed at 6 o’ clock. In a final touch of sophistication, the central disc of the dial is decorated with a superbly executed guilloché pattern.
In almost unworn condition and presented as a full set will all accessories, the 5930 offers a unique mix of complications from a brand who most probably first introduced them in a wristwatch. It is offered with its Patek Philippe Certificate of Origin dated January 23, 2017, invoice, fitted presentation box and outer packaging.
