ABOUT THIS WATCH

• Patek Philippe clearly found inspiration for its 5320G Perpetual Calendar in its rich history, using what might be one of the most important collections of vintage watches to create a series of retro-inspired pieces
• The 5320G Perpetual Calendar is not a re-edition of a single watch but instead, it compiles several strong elements of various watches
• Its elegant case measures 40mm diameter and 11.13mm in height
• Produced in white gold, its proportions are refined, showing straight lines and sharp angles, as well as flawless polishing
• Three step claw lugs sit in harmony with the case
• The watch sports a salmon-lacquered dial and is coupled with a highly domed, box-sapphire crystal
• Both features add great warmth to the piece and a period-relevant appeal, again without being overdone
• Applied luminous Arabic numerals in blackened white gold with a military style and syringe hands, recall the reference 1591
• For the 5320G, Patek created a new display and we have a combination of apertures for the day and month, as well as sub-dials for the date and moon, and finally small circular windows for the leap year and the day-and-night indicator, on each side of the moon
• The 5320G is based on a well-known movement of the brand, the automatic with centrally-mounted rotor, calibre 324
• Under the large 21k gold rotor are meticulously decorated components, with round-chamfered and polished edges
