Lot Essay
Inspired by Patek Philippe's charismatic Calatrava model from the 1930s, an effigy 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 centre combined with applied white gold Breguet numerals.
Reference 5196 was launched in 2004 and exists in all three gold colours, including platinum. Gold versions are usually fitted with baton numerals dials but all platinum models known were fitted with the sought-after Breguet numerals such as the present lot.
