PATEK PHILIPPE YELLOW GOLD PERPETUAL CALENDAR REF. 5040J

The Patek Philippe ref. 5040 is a distinctive, tonneau-shaped timepiece that is identical functionally to the more well known round ref. 3940.  The reference was first introduced in the 1990s and is celebrated for its classic dial layout, especially with the applied Breguet numerals as we see with this example. The ref. 5040 features a perpetual calendar complication, which automatically adjusts for leap years and months with varying day counts, ensuring the date and month remain accurate for decades without the need for manual correction. Powered by the ultra-thin Caliber 240 Q automatic movement with a micro-rotor, the watch combines precision with elegance. Its 32.25 x 35.6 mm case balances functionality with understated luxury with technical sophistication. The dial is meticulously designed, with sub-dials for the day, date, month, and moon phase, often finished in silver or opaline and featuring applied markers.
