  • Catalogue Essay

    Launched in 1996, the Patek Philippe ref. 5039 features the manufacturer’s prized self-winding perpetual calendar mechanism via the cal. 240Q featuring a micro-rotor. Released in yellow gold, pink gold and white gold cases, the optimal detail of the reference is the “Clous de Paris” decorated bezel providing an exciting contrast against the traditional silvered dial. Measuring 35.5mm diameter, the case offers a well-balanced wrist presence compensated by its elongated lugs.

    Discontinued in 2007, it is estimated that throughout its production 500 pieces were made in yellow gold, 400 examples in white gold and 300 examples in pink gold. The present example in white gold is offered in attractive overall condition and is complete with its full set of accessories including its additional solid caseback.

  • Artist Biography

    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.
