Good evening everyone.
January has come to an end in the blink of an eye, and we are now in February. Maybe it's because I'm getting older, but I feel like time is passing by so quickly these days. ( laughs) It's still cold, so please take care of your health and be careful not to get sick.
Now, to get to the main topic, as I have always said, there is a tendency for demand for older Patek Philippe watches to be high due to the warranty period . In fact, older models sell quickly after they arrive, and we receive many inquiries from both domestic and overseas customers. This time, we would like to introduce two recommended models with later warranty dates: the Aquanaut Travel Time Ref. 5164A-001 and the Annual Calendar Chronograph Ref . 5961P-001 . Please enjoy until the end.
"Ref.5164A-001"
"Aquanaut Travel Time" SS
The Aquanaut Travel Time "Ref. 5164A-001" with a stainless steel case was released at Baselworld in 2011.
The 40.8mm case is the same as the Ref. 5167A-001, and is equipped with a "travel time" mechanism, but the case thickness has been reduced to 10.2mm, making it both impactful and comfortable to wear. The combination of the black embossed dial and tropical band gives it a sporty yet classic impression, as you would expect from Patek Philippe. It can be worn both on and off the job, and will make you look like a capable man.
The "Travel Time" mechanism is relatively easy to use. It is especially recommended for those who travel abroad frequently for work or other reasons .
Now, let me briefly review the "travel time" mechanism.
The "travel time" mechanism refers to a mechanism that displays the time in two time zones simultaneously. The dial has two hour hands, the normal hour hand displays the time in LOCAL (local area, place of stay), and the skeleton hour hand displays the time in HOME (place of departure, home, workplace, etc.).
▶ The small windows at 3 o'clock for HOME (starting point) and 9 o'clock for LOCAL (local location) allow you to distinguish between day and night (6am - 6pm: white, 6pm - 6am: blue)
▶ Press the buttons on the side of the case at 10 o'clock and 8 o'clock to change the time zone (normal operation of the hour hand)
▶ Press the push button at 8 o'clock to advance the hour by one hour ▶ Press the push button at 10 o'clock to advance the hour by one hour
Please note: There is a small button on the side of the case at the 4 o'clock position on the dial to fast-forward the calendar, however, the calendar cannot be changed between the hours of 10pm and 2am.
We have only briefly explained how to use it, but once you actually pick it up and use it, you will understand just how great its features are.
The movement, "Cal. 324 SC FUS," which can be seen through the skeleton back, is simply beautiful and never gets old, no matter how many times you look at it.
The warranty date is 2020. There are slight scratches due to use, but the edges of the unpolished bezel and case are well-defined and give a good impression. Comes with all accessories, including a pass case, adjustment pin, box, and booklets.
The selling price is 9,295,000 yen (tax included)
The highly functional Aquanaut Travel Time. This price for a high-year model in good condition is very attractive. We have already received many inquiries, so if you are looking for one, we recommend that you purchase it soon.
"Ref.5961P-001"
『Annual Calendar Chronograph』 PT
The "Annual Calendar Chronograph" "Ref. 5961P-001" was released in 2011.
The beautiful matte blue opaline dial is set with eight baguette-cut diamonds, the bezel with 36, and the buckle with 22, making this a truly gorgeous piece.
There are very few Patek Philippe models with baguette-cut diamonds set in the bezel, so you can tell at a glance that this is a special piece.
I'm sorry I don't have much to say, but no matter what angle you look at it from, it's so cool it takes your breath away. (laughs)
From the skeleton back , you can enjoy the high-performance movement "Cal. CH 28-520 IRM QA 24H" equipped with the brand's proud flyback function chronograph and annual calendar. This is also really beautiful.
The warranty date is 2021. There are some small scratches due to use, but it is a beautiful non-polished item with no noticeable scratches. Of course, it comes with all the accessories, including the pass case, adjustment pin, box, and booklets.
The selling price is 19,250,000 yen (tax included)
We have sold several of these in our shop, but this particular one is very reasonably priced and highly recommended, given its condition. It is a brilliant, elegant and special piece. It is hard to find one like this, so why not pick one up and see it for yourself?
summary
What did you think.
This time, we have introduced two watches that are high-year models that have just arrived, are unpolished, and are in very good condition. It is very difficult to predict future market trends, but it seems that there is still a good time to buy, so we hope you will consider purchasing one.
see you!
