Lot Essay

Inspired by Patek Philippe's charismatic Calatrava reference 570 model from the 1930s, a vision of timeless elegance, the present reference 5196 features a platinum case and a highly attractive two-tone silvered dial. Reminiscent of the dials from the period, it combines a satin-finish center combined with applied white gold Breguet numerals. To the best of our knowledge the present watch has never before been offered in public.
