When Patek Philippe launched the ref. 5316/50P in 2023, it immediately turned a grail for me. Not a lot to purchase – no, you most likely will not be shocked to listen to that at $987,460 (at this time’s worth) for a perpetual calendar minute-repeater tourbillon, I am not a purchaser. However the aesthetics, that smoked sapphire dial, have been such a radical change from something Patek had ever performed earlier than that I had to see one in individual, {photograph} one, and even maintain one and perceive it briefly. I texted everybody I do know, requested at salons and ADs, and two years later, I nonetheless have not seen it but. However now I’ve seen its little brother, the brand new ref. 6159G, and I can begin to interpret what the household is all about. If the ref. 5316/50P is something like its little sibling—it is one wonderful watch.
