Reference 5235 features an annual calendar complication that only requires correction once a year. The reference is fitted with an unusual regulator dial featuring three apertures for hour, minute and seconds, which was inspired by the large and highly accurate freestanding regulator clocks once used by watchmakers and scientific institutes. The model was launched in 2011 at Baselworld and celebrated for its case design which is highly reminiscent of the vintage reference 3448. The reference was only available in white gold and was retired at the beginning of 2019 for the release of a pink gold model, reference 5235/50R.
The present lot appears in excellent overall condition. With fewer than 20 timepieces returning to the market since its launch, the present lot is an exceptional opportunity for collectors.
