With Patek Philippe Certificate of Origin dated May 2000, glazed display screw back numbered 4'007'812, Patek Philippe Authorised Service Center tag and product information, 18K gold and wooden setting pin, wooden presentation box and outer packaging. Furthermore delivered with Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the present watch in 1999 and its subsequent sale on 14 February 2000.
To the best of our knowledge, the watch has never been offered before and is preserved in excellent, original overall condition.
Reference 5004 is already today, despite of still being listed in Patek Philippe's catalogues, considered a classic. Deriving from reference 3970 which is the true and legitimate successor to the mythical reference 2499, reference 5004 embodies not only the essence of Patek Philippe's design legacy of the post war decades but also the savoir faire of their skilled master watchmakers who managed to add another highly complex mechanism to a traditional sized watch without disturbing its proportions. To many collectors, reference 5004 is one of the greatest wristwatches ever made and is often mentioned as the watch with the most promising future on the market.
Manufacture of reference 5004 was launched in 1995. The model is illustrated in Patek Philippe Wristwatches by Martin Huber & Alan Banbery, second edition, p. 312.
