The rose gold Patek Philippe Nautilus Moon Phase Ref. 5712R continues to be one of the most desirable luxury watches in the world today. It’s no surprise that it remains a celebrity favorite as well, as the Ref. 5712R stands out with its unique personality, featuring a power reserve and moon phase functionality brilliantly put together by its black-brown dial, rose gold case, and dark brown alligator strap.
Considered as the leading luxury watch manufacture, Patek Philippe has been a vanguard in high-end watchmaking. Founded in Geneva, Switzerland in 1839, the brand began as a joint venture between Antoni Norbet de Patek, an exiled Polish nobleman and his partner, François Czapek in making high-end pocket watches. Disagreements between them led to Czapek leaving the company in 1845, leading to a new venture between Patek and French watchmaker Adrien Philippe who invented the company’s stem and hand-winding mechanisms. One of Patek Philippe’s most iconic models, the Nautilus, remains to be one of the most sought-after luxury sports watches to this day. As a leading innovator in watchmaking, the brand has produced a number of technically advanced timepieces throughout the centuries, including special pieces like the Henry Graves Supercomplication, one of the world’s most complicated timepiece produced for the American banker Henry Graves, Jr. and is one of the most expensive watches sold for a record US$24 million at a Sotheby’s auction in 2014. Patek Philippe also currently holds the record for the most expensive wristwatch ever sold at auction for the Grandmaster Chime Ref. 6300A-010, which was sold at a Christie’s auction for US$31 million in 2019. The brand remains privately owned by the Stern family since purchasing the brand in 1932.
