Catalogue Essay
Initially introduced in 2018, featuring a stainless steel construction with a black dial and an optional orange (or black) strap, the model underwent a remarkable update in 2021. The transformation involved a shift to the more opulent white gold for the case, while the dial now offered in two colour choices: green or blue, as exemplified by the present model, accompanied by matching straps. Consequently, while the choice of case metal adds a touch of luxury, the lighthearted color palette enhances the overall "fun" aspect, downplaying the seriousness of the timepiece.
With a 42mm diameter case, the addition of two chronograph pushers does not compromise the integrity of the case, ensuring it remains compact and comfortable on the wrist. The watch strikes a harmonious balance between sportiness and sophistication, housing the renowned in-house calibre CH 28-520. This movement, featuring a flyback function, showcases Patek's traditional craftsmanship, including Gyromax and Spiromax technologies, as well as the prestigious Patek Philippe Seal.
The present Patek Philippe reference 5968G-001 dates back to 2021 and in nearly "like-new" condition, is accompanied by its original full set of accessories.

Artist Biography
Patek Philippe
Swiss
• 1839
Since its founding in 1839, this famous Geneva-based firm has been surprising its clientele with superbly crafted timepieces fitted with watchmaking's most prestigious complications. Traditional and conservative designs are found across Patek Philippe's watches made throughout their history — the utmost in understated elegance.
Well-known for the Graves Supercomplication — a highly complicated pocket watch that was the world’s most complicated watch for 50 years — this family-owned brand has earned a reputation of excellence around the world. Patek's complicated vintage watches hold the highest number of world records for results achieved at auction compared with any other brand. For collectors, key models include the reference 1518, the world's first serially produced perpetual calendar chronograph, and its successor, the reference 2499. Other famous models include perpetual calendars such as the ref. 1526, ref. 3448 and 3450, chronographs such as the reference 130, 530 and 1463, as well as reference 1436 and 1563 split seconds chronographs. Patek is also well-known for their classically styled, time-only "Calatrava" dress watches, and the "Nautilus," an iconic luxury sports watch first introduced in 1976 as the reference 3700 that is still in production today.
