Catalogue Note
Patek Philippe has demonstrated its expertise in the entire spectrum of horological complications. The quintessence of craftmanship is paired with the present 5002 wristwatch that reflects the utmost in watchmaking artistry. Launched in 2001, the reference is composed of twelve complications including a second dial. The watch can today be considered a contemporary classic. The watch unites the most fascinating complications in the compact case of a wristwatch and the dial is a work of art in its own right. The watch possesses a minute repeater with cathedral gongs and a tourbillon. On the front dial, it indicates standard time and features a perpetual calendar with retrograde date and aperture for moon phases indication. Inspired by the Star Calibre 2000 pocket watch, Patek Philippe was able to miniaturise the concept of the sky chart for the Skymoon Tourbillon. The reverse sets the stage for astronomical function and shows the northern sky, sidereal time, angular progression and the phases of the moon.
