Introducing: Patek Philippe Chronograph ref. 5172G-010. Stunning is an Understatement.

Along with all the other amazing releases for Watches & Wonders 2022, Patek Philippe brings a salmon dial chronograph like no other. Equipped with a 41 mm 18K white gold case, this new chronograph accentuates the vintage spirit of this model much appreciated by devotees of fine mechanical horology by equipping it with an opaline rose-gilded dial —salmon-colored looking. The legibility of the dial by day or night is ensured by applied Arabic numerals and syringe-type hours/minutes hands made of gold with an anthracite treatment and white luminescent coating, complemented by a small seconds display at 9 o’clock.

Turning the watch over reveals the manual wound calibre CH 29-535 PS distinguished by its architecture protected by six patented innovations, including optimized toothing profile, precision adjustment of engagement depth, and self-regulating zero-resetting hammers. This movement also features several distinctive technical characteristics reflecting the same concern for functionality and performance including the instantaneous 30-minute counter. Its aesthetic and its meticulous finishes are visible through the transparent sapphire crystal case back and the movement provides a power reserve of 65 hours when fully wound.

On the wrist, the new Patek Philippe Chronograph ref. 5172G-010 wears true to its size and with incredible wrist presence. A watch that can play in both the dressy or sporty arenas. The 5172G-010 is delivered on a shiny chocolate brown alligator leather strap with square scales and with a fold-over clasp.
