In 2010, Patek Philippe launched reference 5205 in white gold. It was not until three years later, that the Swiss manufacturer released this reference in pink gold with two dial options, black or ivory white. The reference represented an innovative turn with its dynamic architecture and annual calendar display. Along the upper part of the dial, three apertures display the day, date and month. This is all powered by the acutomatic calibre 324 which also provides a 24-hour indication and a charming moon phase. The hollow lugs and concave bezel represent the contemporary elegance Patek Philippe strives for. Given the success and allure of this reference, in 2022 Patek Philippe released a new iteration of the reference featuring an olive green dial.
The present watch is kept in excellent condition and comes with its papers, box and accessories.
