In celebration of this collaborative spirit, a limited edition reference 5296 Calatrava model was created to mark the inauguration of the Patek Philippe Boutique at Pisa Orologeria in Milan, Italy, in 2008. This exclusive release was produced in both pink gold and white gold, with each variant restricted to a mere 25 examples. Among these highly coveted pieces, the present example shines as an exceptional specimen. Encased in 38 mm of 18k white gold, it boasts a sophisticated aesthetic complemented by a black leather strap and matching 18k white-gold buckle, creating an irresistibly handsome appearance. Remarkably well-preserved, the hallmarks and the personalization on the back, “Edizione Limitata Pisa Orologeria 2008,” remain intact and clear, attesting to its almost unworn condition. The watch features a distinctive two-toned silvered dial, adorned with white-gold Breguet numerals set against a polished chapter ring. The outer minute divisions alternate between red and silvered accents, with a red hand indicating the center seconds. Positioned at 3 o’clock, a date aperture adds a practical touch to the overall design. The circular case, sapphire crystal display screw back, and meticulous craftsmanship further enhance the watch’s clean and classic aesthetic. Beyond its visual appeal, this timepiece is equipped with self-winding functionality and boasts water-resistant qualities. It comes complete with its Certificate of Origin, confirming details such as the case, movement, and sale date, alongside its original box and booklets. This limited edition Patek Philippe stands as a testament to the brand’s dedication to craftsmanship, exclusivity, and enduring partnerships with esteemed retailers.
