Specialist note

With Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the present watch in 2005 and its subsequent sale on September 2nd of the same year. Further accompanied by a Patek Philippe Certificate of Origin dated September 2nd, 2005, Patek Philippe presentation box, tie tag, setting pin, leather envelope, product literature, and outer packaging.

Consigned by its first owner, this watch has never been offered in public before.

The "Gondolo Calendario" reference 5135 was introduced to the market in 2004, the distinctive and elegant case shape paying tribute to Patek Philippe's watches from the Art Deco period, underlining the continuous popularity of this celebrated epoch.

The model is fitted with the new automatic calibre 324, incorporating the patented annual calendar function, a proprietary Patek Philippe development introduced in 1996 in the first wristwatch that automatically advances the month, day and date, and only requires a manual correction once a year on 1 March.
