Patek Philippe Perpetual Calendar Grand Complication Ref. 5039G-001 – 18k White Gold – Box & Papers – Additional Caseback – 2004 – Rare 

We are pleased to present this highly collectible and increasingly rare Patek Philippe Perpetual Calendar Ref. 5039G-001, crafted in 18k white gold and offered with its original box, papers, additional solid caseback, and original 18k white gold folding clasp. Manufactured in 2004, this exceptional example represents one of the most elegant perpetual calendar wristwatches produced by Patek Philippe during the modern era.

The Perpetual Calendar has long been regarded as one of Patek Philippe’s signature complications, embodying the manufacture’s unrivaled ability to combine technical mastery with timeless design. Introduced as the successor to the legendary Ref. 3940, the Ref. 5039 distinguished itself through its refined officer-style case and beautifully executed hobnail-pattern bezel, a classic decorative element deeply rooted in Geneva watchmaking tradition. Its balanced proportions and discreet elegance have made it one of the most sought-after perpetual calendar references among collectors worldwide.

The silvered dial showcases the perpetual calendar indications in a harmonious and highly legible layout. Twin apertures beneath 12 o’clock display the day and month, while the three subsidiary registers provide the date, leap year cycle, 24-hour indication, and moon phase display. The overall presentation reflects the exceptional attention to detail and aesthetic balance for which Patek Philippe is renowned.

Powering the watch is the celebrated self-winding Caliber 240 Q, one of the most respected perpetual calendar movements in haute horlogerie. Featuring an ultra-thin construction and a 22k gold micro-rotor, the movement combines remarkable technical sophistication with elegant proportions. Visible through the sapphire crystal caseback, the caliber exhibits exquisite hand-finishing, including Geneva stripes, polished bevels, and finely decorated components throughout.
