Patek Philippe has sat atop the horological mountain for going on two centuries, having earned near-universal acclaim for their proficiencies in designing, engineering, and manufacturing some of the most exquisite timepieces the world has ever seen. 

The celebrated maison has a tradition of creating watches that transcend generations. Leaning on the pillars of timeless design, refinement, and mechanical ingenuity, there’s arguably no other manufacture that does it better. 

This piece, a Reference 5170G-001, features a 40mm 18L white gold case with a polished bezel, signed crown, rectangular pushers and a sapphire exhibition caseback framing the maison's Calibre 29-535 manual-winding movement. 

The dial on this piece maybe one of our favorite configurations for several reasons. Firstly, the applied white gold Breguet indices paired with a matching, polished handset add a certain glint to a monochromatic dial — which leads to our next point. The stark white dial with black accents offer a simple, yet elegant display and remains highly legible. Finally, the chemin de fer minute track and pulsations scale ... that should speak for itself.

Chef's kiss.

Seriously though, a pulsations scale, in our opinion, has a distinguishable aesthetic compared to a traditional tachymeter scale. And frankly, adds a bit more fun and a breath of fresh air.

Any old wristwatch can tell the time. Few truly define it.
