History And Details Of The Patek Philippe Limited Edition Perpetual Calendar
On the 27th of May 2015, Patek Philippe presented their Watch Art Grand exhibition at London’s Saatchi Gallery. The exhibition showcased to the world, a small part of the Patek Philippe world back in Geneva. Within the exhibition was a unique collection of models and references, ranging from the rarest vintage pieces worn by royalty to grand complications and modern collection displays. To commemorate the exhibition four models of the current collection were chosen (all in officers style cases) to have a special London dial created.

These models were, 5213G, 5159G, 5153G, 5050J and the ladies 7200R.

Manufactured in 18ct rose gold with a sapphire crystal glass exhibition case back with the Calatrava emblem visible on the gold rotor.

The 36mm diameter solid three-body case, curved downturned lugs, and cupped bezel are polished, and all hallmarks are clear and bold, including those underneath the lugs.

The dial is white with applied faceted yellow gold baton hour markers and matching Feuille hands, and a blued cantered sweeping second’s hand. There is a retrograde date arch from 8 to 4 o'clock, with a blued indicator hand.

The perimeter of the dial has a gold dot minute/second track around the perimeter. A day aperture window is at 9 o'clock, a matching window for the month is at 9 o'clock, and a leap year indicator is at 12 o'clock. The moon phase subsidiary dial is at the 6 o'clock position, and it has a 46-hour power reserve at full wind. It's water-resistant to 25 meters/80 feet, and the 10.6mm thick case, dial, and movement are all signed.

The mechanical automatic self-winding Patek Philippe calibre 315/136 movement is rhodium-plated, with fausses cotes embellishment. It has the Geneva seal of quality as well as the Patek Philippe stamps. It's constructed with 31 jewels, a Kif shock protection device, and a straight-line lever escapement. It includes a Gyromax balance that's adjusted to heat, cold, isochronism and 5 positions, a 21K gold winding rotor, and a self-compensating free-sprung flat balance spring. The mechanism oscillates at a frequency of 21,600 VPH (3 Hz).
