Ref. 5159 R – 001
No. 7295671/6313587, circa 2020
A 18k pink gold automatic retrograde perpetual calendar with moon phases, pink deployant clasp
Case: round shape, hinged vase back, signed
Dial: grey silvered, black Roman numerals, centre seconds, retrograde date indication, aperture for days of the week and months (English), bissextile year indication, outer minute track, signed

cross, signed
Buckle/Clasp: 18k pink gold deployant clasp, signed
Dimensions: 38 mm
Weight: 109,1 g
Accessories: certificate of origin dated October 1st, 2020, presentation box and outer packaging, Patek Philippe
leather cardholder including leaflet for retrograde perpetual calendar caliber 324 S QR and product literature
Provenance: from the original owner
The Patek Philippe Reference 5159R represents one of the most sophisticated expressions of Haute Horlogerie, combining the perpetual calendar complication with a retrograde date display in a rose gold case.
Technical Specifications:
Movement: Caliber 324 S QR, self-winding mechanical movement
Complications: Perpetual calendar with retrograde date, moon phases, leap year indicator
Case: rose gold with sapphire crystal caseback
Display: The retrograde date hand sweeps across a 180-degree arc before instantly jumping back to the beginning of the month
Power Reserve: Approximately 45 hours
Notable Features:
The retrograde mechanism adds exceptional visual appeal to the perpetual calendar function. Unlike traditional date displays that advance incrementally, the retrograde hand creates a graceful arc across the dial before its dramatic return to position one. The perpetual calendar automatically accounts for varying month lengths and leap years until the year 2100, requiring no manual adjustment during this period. The moon phase indication maintains accuracy for 122 years before requiring a one-day correction.
Historical Context:
This reference exemplifies Patek Philippe’s mastery of complex complications, representing decades of horological refinement. The combination of perpetual calendar and retrograde display demonstrates the manufacture’s ability to merge technical prowess with aesthetic sophistication.
