Description
Writing about so many beautiful watches is no easy thing to do. It's not the writing or selling part that is difficult; it's not giving into temptation to wear the watches! I see lots of great timepieces, and while many catch my eye, not many tempt me enough to actually put it into my collection. This Patek 5040 in platinum is just such a temptation.
While everything about this perpetual calendar is nice, for me the nicest aspect is the case. It's a perfectly proportioned, perfectly sized tonneau shape. Dimensions are 41mm long by 35mm wide by 8.5mm thick. It's an eminently wearable size, and fits easily under shirt cuffs. Sapphire crystal.
Caliber 240 Q with 22k mini-rotor for automatic winding; 27 jewels; 46 hour power reserve. Caliber has 275 individual parts and is stamped with the Geneva Seal.
Dial is black with the following displays: day and 24 hour indicators at 9 o'clock; month and leap year indicator at 3 o'clock; moonphase and date indicators at 6 o'clock. Dial has applied arabic numerals and minute markers.
Strap is hand sewn black crocodile with platinum deployant clasp.
Watch is brand new with box and papers. Retail price is $73,300.
