With Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the present watch with two-tone silvered dial, raised Breguet indexes in white gold, in platinum in 2004 and its subsequent sale on 22 June 2004.

To the best of our knowledge, this watch is fresh to the market. A detailed count reveals that less than 20 examples of this reference have shown up at auction thus far.

Inspired by Patek Philippe's charismatic Calatrava model from the 1930s, an effigy of timeless elegance, reference 5196P features a platinum case and a highly attractive two-tone silvered dial. Reminiscent of the dials from the period, it combines a satin-finish centre combined with applied white gold Breguet numerals.
