Patek Philippe Genève, Movement No. 773762, Case No. 2930553, Ref. 5040, Cal. 240Q, 35 x 42 mm, circa 1993
A tonneau-shaped automatic Geneva wristwatch with perpetual calendar, leap year indicator and moon phase - with original box, original certificate and brochures
Case: 18k gold, glazed push back. Dial: silvered.
Patek Philippe began the production of reference 5040 in 1992; it was fitted with automatic calibre 240Q. Its unique, elegant tonneau shape is a homage to Patek’s 1920s models. The watch was available in yellow gold, platinum, white gold and some very few red gold examples. This watch here is one of the very early ones with the much-coveted Breguet gold numerals and hands. Production was discontinued in 2007 and the model was replaced by references 5140J (2012) and 5140G (2014).
