Catalogue Essay Reference 5951 was introduced to the market at the Baselworld Fair in 2010. The present watch, encased in platinum, features many interesting elements that render it an exceptional timepiece. The first is the bold dial design; the watch is fitted with a black dial with silvered subsidiary dials and red chronograph hands, giving the watch a very charming and contemporary look that greatly enhances its appeal to collectors. The second is the single-button split second chronograph mechanism, which is the main feature of the watch. The watch is powered by the calibre CHR 27-525 PS, which is the thinnest column-wheel-controlled split seconds chronograph movement ever created by Patek Philippe. It enables the wearer to operate the split-seconds chronograph via the crown and gives the watch a fresh, modern, yet elegant appeal. The third is the cushion-shaped case design; cushion-shaped perpetual calendar single-button split seconds chronograph movements by Patek Philippe is extremely limited and exceedingly rare. Complete with all accessories, this very refined reference 5951 wristwatch combines watchmaking’s most sought after complications and is increasingly popular amongst avid collectors.
