A superb example of Patek Philippe’s mastery of the perpetual calendar complication, this Reference 5040 in platinum represents one of the most elegant and distinctive interpretations of the complication from the Geneva manufacture. Produced in 1994, this example features the model’s signature tonneau-shaped case—an enduring symbol of discreet sophistication and technical excellence.
The silvered dial, adorned with applied Breguet numerals, exudes classical refinement while maintaining exceptional legibility. The balanced calendar display—day, date, month, and moon phases—showcases Patek Philippe’s timeless design ethos and mechanical precision. The watch is accompanied by an additional factory black lacquered dial, offering a striking aesthetic contrast to the original silvered configuration.
Meticulously preserved and previously very well restored, the platinum case retains its full proportions and harmonious curves, testifying to careful stewardship over time. The timepiece is accompanied by an Extract from the Archives confirming its production and sale in 1994, further cementing its provenance.
A model of restrained grandeur, this Patek Philippe 5040 combines elegance of form, mechanical sophistication, and rarity—an essential addition to any collection of high complications.
