Catalogue Essay
- The Patek Philippe ref. 5053 is a darling of discreet connoisseurs. In production between 2001 and 2005, the reference features a distinctive officier-style case. Powering this elegant timepiece is the self-winding cal. 315/202 movement bearing the prestigious Geneva Seal hallmark, finished to the virtuosic standards required by the Poinçon de Genève.

- The dial is a paragon of discretion. The warm silver opaline dial contrasts beautifully with the Breguet numerals and hands. A discreet date window at 6 o’clock completes the harmonious layout. Housed in a classically restrained 35.5mm 18K pink gold case with a hinged cuvette display back that opens to reveal the hand-finished movement, the ref. 5053R represents the apex of Patek Philippe’s philosophical quest for understated elegance and technical perfection.

- For the few who recognise its inestimable allure, the ref. 5053R stands alone as an icon of Patek Philippe's quiet virtuosity. Offered in attractive overall condition, the present example is further accompanied by its original accessories.
