Launched in 2005, reference 5959 is almost identical in design and size to the brand’s very first split seconds chronograph produced in 1923.
The challenge imposed on the watchmakers and engineers tasked to create this mechanical marvel was to create a monopusher split seconds chronograph movement to fit a 33mm case, while keeping with ease of use and reliability.
The result was Patek Philippe’s very first in-house chronograph caliber CHR 27-525 PS which was also at time of launch the world’s thinnest split seconds chronograph, measuring at a record-breaking 5.25 mm.
Launched in platinum only with either white or black dial the present example is an ultra-rare and elusive pink gold model with black dial and elegant gilt Breguet numerals of which it is believed 5 were made. This is the very first time not only that this combination arrives on the international auction market but the very first time it is seen by many.
The ultimate rarity, elegance and mechanical dexterity of the present reference 5959 make it a must have for the sophisticated collector.
