## Caption

Some Patek Philippe references stop collectors in their tracks. The Reference 5016 ‘Second Series’ is undoubtedly one of them. Now, it is coming to #SothebysHongKong this September. 

Introduced in 1993, it stands as one of the purest expressions of the manufacture’s grand-complication watchmaking, bringing together a tourbillon, perpetual calendar, moon phases, and retrograde date within a rose gold case. Produced in exceptionally small numbers, it is regarded as one of the most important grand complications of the past half-century.

Bid now at the link in bio ahead of the live Important Watches auction on 18-19 September.

Luxury Week is presented by LuxuryGroup.Official.
