White gold or pink gold? Our Important Watches this week in #NYC offers the iconic Patek Philippe Ref 5020 in both white gold (one of only 8 known examples) and in pink gold (one of less than a dozen known examples). As an alternative to the classic Ref 3970, Patek first introduced the Ref. 5020 in 1994, but it only began to be appreciated after it ceased production in 2002. In retrospect, this is an iconic reference – also known as the Patek TV set watch – was ahead of its time, and is a trophy for any modern wristwatch collection. Visit us in our York Avenue galleries this week in advance of our Important Watches sale on the Thursday! #sothebyswatches #patekphilippe #patek #whitegold #pinkgold #ref5020 #patektvset #cushionform #perpetualcalendar #chronograph #wristwatch #watches
