DESCRIPTION
Introduced at Baselworld in 1993, the reference 5050P marks an important step in Patek Philippe’s modern approach to complicated wristwatches, introducing the brand’s first serially produced retrograde perpetual calendar.
Its 36 mm case reflects the refined proportions of the 1990s, while the dial balances complexity and clarity through a sweeping retrograde date, moon-phase, and leap-year indication. A discreet platinum hallmark diamond at 6 o’clock subtly signals its precious-metal pedigree.
Produced until 2002, this reference is powered by the automatic Caliber 315 S QR, finished to Geneva Seal standards. Highly limited in production — with platinum examples among the rarest — it is today regarded as a cornerstone reference for collectors interested in Patek Philippe’s evolution of perpetual calendar design.
