The reference 5159 replaced the earlier reference 5059 in 2007 and distinguished itself from its predecessor by increasing its classically styled case by an additional 2mm and adding a hand-engraved dial. The combination of these two elements, along with the retrograde date and officer-style case back with a hinged dust cover, gives the reference 5159 a timeless and distinctive Patek Philippe design, drawing from many of the brand's most iconic designs.
