圖錄文章
In recognition of their 150-year partnership, Patek Philippe released the exemplary reference 5150 (T150) annual calendar wristwatch with moon phase in 2001.

The brand looked to its past and future for inspiration, and the model was the first Patek Philippe reference designed exclusively for a retailer. The officier-style case was reminiscent of their 1989 150th Anniversary wristwatch, the reference 3960J, however modernized to a 36mm diameter case with a bolder architecture featuring thick downturned lugs, and a wider bezel. The engraved hinged caseback reads “Patek Philippe & Co: Tiffany & Co: 1851-2001” and set against a background featuring Patek Philippe’s headquarters. The caliber 315 S-QA was released in 1996 as the brand’s first annual calendar, and it was modified for the reference 5150 to include a moon phase complication.

The 2001 model has a modern appeal with an unusual dial layout featuring a calendar displayed via three apertures, with day at the 9 o’clock, date at 6 o’clock, and the numeric month displayed in an aperture placed to the right of the word “month” - a twist on the standard typically spelling out or abbreviating the names of each month. It also gave the dial an asymmetrical feel with one’s eye drawn to the right-side of the dial. Additionally, rather than using bevelled numerals, Patek Philippe opted to use flat numerals and hands, as well as placing an oversized “T” at the 12 o’clock. Philippe and Thierry Stern were involved in the design of the watch, showing their commitment to this auspicious occasion. The watch was made in limited editions of 150 examples each in yellow, white and pink gold.

Our Ride the Wave collector purchased this white gold example at the Tiffany & Co. boutique in New York City two decades ago, and it has remained unworn ever since, retaining its original caseback adhesive sticker and all accessories.
