Patek Philippe Platinum Chronograph

Patek Philippe has sat atop the horological mountain for going on two centuries, having earned near-universal acclaim for its proficiencies in designing, engineering, and manufacturing some of the most exquisite timepieces the world has ever seen.  The celebrated maison has a tradition of creating watches that transcend generations. Leaning on the pillars of timeless design, refinement, and mechanical ingenuity, there’s arguably no other manufacture that does it better.  This piece, a Reference 5170P-001, features a 39mm platinum case with a polished bezel, signed crown, rectangular pushers, and a sapphire exhibition caseback framing the maison's Calibre 29-535 manual-winding movement. Paired to signed dark navy strap with a signed deployant clasp, it ships with its factory goodies, including a box set, paperwork, as well as a Certificate of Origin dating to 2020. Its dial may be one of our favorite configurations for several reasons. The blue sunburst is particularly striking with the subtle integration of baguettes for the hour markers. This is one of the most tasteful ways to integrate diamonds on a men's watch.  If you're on the hunt for a chronograph with classic looks, excellent build quality, and a tremendous pedigree, this Ref. 5170P will set you straight!
