Now available, a rarely seen and quietly special Patek Philippe Perpetual Calendar reference 5136/1G-001 in white gold.

Often overlooked yet deeply compelling, the 5136 occupies a fascinating position in Patek Philippe’s perpetual calendar lineage. Produced in small numbers, it carries clear DNA from the late-production reference 3940 - from the balanced dial architecture to the elegant case proportions - but elevates the concept by being rendered entirely in white gold, including its beautifully executed five-piece white gold bracelet. The result is a perpetual calendar that feels both familiar and distinctly more substantial on the wrist.

The dial is classic Patek Philippe: clean, legible, and effortlessly refined. The presence of a sigma dial is a particularly charming detail, underscoring the use of precious metals and adding a layer of collector appeal that seasoned enthusiasts will immediately appreciate. Everything is exactly where it should be, with the hallmark symmetry and restraint that define Patek’s perpetual calendar design language.

In very good overall condition, the watch shows careful wear rather than excess intervention. Offered here as a watch-only example, it remains an uncommon opportunity to acquire one of Patek Philippe’s most under-the-radar perpetual calendars - a reference that rewards those who value subtlety, historical continuity, and true rarity over the obvious choice. A connoisseur’s Patek Philippe, and one that seldom appears on the market. It is available for viewing in London and purchase worldwide. Please get in touch for further information.
