Lot Essay
With Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of this watch in 2006 with semi-glossy black dial, embossed centre, Arabic indexes, luminescent coating and its subsequent sale on 16 October 2006. Furthermore delivered with leather folder, literature and fitted presentation box.
Launched in 1997, reference 5066 was in production until 2006. It is known in steel and gold, with slate grey dial embossed with a pattern matching the strap's. It is powered by the centre seconds calibre 330 SC, and its two body case is made Favre-Perret casemaker, as the hallmark FP denotes in the stainless steel case (gold cases bear the number 115 inscribed into a hammer: the Favre-Perret hallmark for gold creations). Its sporty yet understated and very elegant design prompted Patek Philippe to market it as "The Perfect Dress Sports Watch".
