The reference 5160 represents a contemporary interpretation of Patek Philippe's rich heritage, particularly drawing inspiration from its predecessors – the references 5159 and 5059.
Retaining the "Officier" style case of the previous model, reminiscent of early 20th-century watches with hinged casebacks, the ref. 5160 elevates the design with exquisitely hand-engraved arabesque motifs reminiscent of the Belle Époque era. Introduced in 2010 and crafted in yellow, pink, and white gold—with the white gold variant being the only one currently available in the catalog—the intricate craftsmanship required for the case, achievable only by a select few skilled artisans, naturally results in extremely limited production of the model. Additionally, it features a distinctive detail not found in the yellow and pink gold versions: the grooves of the engravings are filled with oxidized silver powder, creating a striking, dark effect that enhances the contrast of the engraved elements.
Presented in new, factory single-sealed condition, the present white gold version is offered complete with all of its accessories.
