The reference 5712, such as the present watch, was released in 2006 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the coveted Gerald Genta creation. Praised by collectors and garnering a cult following globally, the Patek Philippe ref. 5712 replaced the exclusive reference 3712, which was only in production from 2005 through 2006 and saw the first introduction of the date, moon phases, power reserve indication. Featuring the distinctive Nautilus porthole inspired case, reference 5712 remains to be very sought after among collectors and the present one is even more precious. It is not every day that one will come across a remarkable example, fresh-to-the-market, of a stainless steel reference 5712 and this only would be enough to attract many collectors and passionate. Anyway, the watch is definitely more important since between 5 and 6 o’clock of the ocean blue dial with grooves, is present the prestigious signature of the retailer Tiffany & Co, capable of adding higher desirability and collectability to the present lot. It is, furthermore, accompanied by its Patek Philippe Certificate of Origin and iconic Tiffany blue packaging.
