  • Catalogue Essay

    - First released in stainless steel in 2014 and recognised as the Nautilus Travel Time Chronograph, the Patek Philippe reference 5990 competes with the perpetual calendar reference 5740 for the sceptre of “most complicated” Nautilus, featuring a chronograph and travel/dual time complication - with dedicated night/day indications for “home” and “local” time. A testament to Patek Philippe’s excellence in design and technical flair: the fact that two complications requiring external pushers were chosen to be fitted into a Nautilus case - which due to its specific shape is very difficult to modify - is more than surprising.

    - Boasting a plethora of complications, the timepiece is powered by the caliber CH 28-520 C FUS, it ingeniously integrates the dual-time functionality of the Aquanaut Travel Time reference 5164/A (now discontinued) with an automatic flyback chronograph.

    - The rose gold model was officially released in 2021, and was without a doubt one of the most sought-after and virtually impossible to acquire releases of that year.

    - The present Patek Philippe reference 5990/1R is further preserved in excellent condition.

    Patek Philippe

    Swiss • 1839

    Since its founding in 1839, this famous Geneva-based firm has been surprising its clientele with superbly crafted timepieces fitted with watchmaking's most prestigious complications. Traditional and conservative designs are found across Patek Philippe's watches made throughout their history — the utmost in understated elegance.

    Well-known for the Graves Supercomplication — a highly complicated pocket watch that was the world’s most complicated watch for 50 years — this family-owned brand has earned a reputation of excellence around the world. Patek's complicated vintage watches hold the highest number of world records for results achieved at auction compared with any other brand. For collectors, key models include the reference 1518, the world's first serially produced perpetual calendar chronograph, and its successor, the reference 2499. Other famous models include perpetual calendars such as the ref. 1526, ref. 3448 and 3450, chronographs such as the reference 130, 530 and 1463, as well as reference 1436 and 1563 split seconds chronographs. Patek is also well-known for their classically styled, time-only "Calatrava" dress watches, and the "Nautilus," an iconic luxury sports watch first introduced in 1976 as the reference 3700 that is still in production today.
