The present timepiece is perhaps one of the best examples of when haute horlogerie meets joaillerie. Encased in a beautiful platinum case with ruby-set bezel, lugs and clasp totaling 5.3 carats in total, the Patek Philippe ref. 5271/12P-001 is a true gem in the lineage of complicated Patek Philippe timepieces. In 2011, Patek Philippe released the ref. 5270 in white gold to replace the ref. 5970. A milestone for the firm, the new reference featured Patek Philippe’s very first in-house designed and built caliber 29-535 PS Q.
In 2014, the firm released few rare examples of the ref. 5271P with various gem set variants, including emerald, ruby, sapphire and diamonds. The reference was the first to feature a glossy black lacquer dial constructed in twelve layers. Differing from second series examples of the regular ref. 5270, the dial no longer features the “double chin” at 6 O’clock. The present example set with rubies is one of the most desirable examples of the reference as the pigeon blood red contrasts extremely well against the glossy black dial giving the reference a vibrant appeal.
Presented in double factory sealed condition, the present example was previously sold at PHILLIPS Hong Kong Watch Auction: SIX on 29th May 2018 and has not been opened since. Accompanied by the full set of accessories, the present specimen of this rare and superlative reference is with no doubt rare.
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.
