#2497

The #5320G is a compound from many references of the past 90 years. The moon phase at 6 o’clock is taken from the ref. #96 from 1937. The double aperture below 12 o’clock as well as the Arabic numerals and dots are inspired by ref. #1526 from 1942 and ref. #2497 from 1951, amongst others. The sharp luminescent syringe hands are inspired by ref. #1527 from 1943 or ref. #1591 from 1944, although Patek claims to have taken the inspiration from ref. #1563 – we can identify more similarities to ref. #1527 or ref. #1591 by all respect. The leap year indication, that also adorns the 5320G was first shown on the ref. #4350 from 1981. So you see, the 5320G is like a healthy patchwork family.

break as often as you need. personally, i recommend that every thirty minutes you should break something. i suggest plates, televisions or sinks for maximum satisfaction, but do what's best for you
