Lot Essay

Captivating the audience at Baselworld in 2015, Patek Philippe reference 5370P-001 may be one of the finest contemporary masterpieces produced by the storied manufacturer. To the delight of purists, the watch is a manually winding split-seconds chronograph with a marvelous black grand feu enamel dial. The enamel dial is painstakingly intricate and tedious to produce, but the result is incomparable. The black color has an incredible depth and elusive playfulness that changes in different lighting.

Although not limited, very few of these watches were produced. Additionally, reference 5370P-001 was made for only five years, making it an exceptionally rare timepiece. Much of this is due to the demanding amount of time it takes to produce this masterpiece’s dial and movement. The watch pays homage to the original split-seconds chronograph reference 1436 produced from 1938 to 1971. It is the first split-seconds chronograph since the inaugural reference and is wonderfully designed for contemporary tastes measuring 41mm. The stately timepiece has a hefty platinum case, but the watch remains streamlined thanks to its flowing, elegant construction and finishing. This is evident in the scalloped case sides that have also been horizontally brushed, an extravagant detail fitting for this timepiece. On the rear, reference 5370 includes both a solid and sapphire caseback making inhouse caliber 29-535PS viewable. It is easily one of the most eye-catching, elaborate, and beautifully finished movements made by Patek Philippe. Every inch of reference 5370P-001 has been thoughtfully considered and executed, making this watch a collector’s dream to covet.

To the best of our knowledge, this watch has never been publicly offered at auction before.
