Patek Philippe celebrated its 175th anniversary with the creation of exclusive commemorative timepieces. Part of a limited production of 400 pieces only, the present reference 5975 multi-scale chronograph wristwatch features three logarithmic scales, including tachymetre for calculation of speed, telemeter for distance and finally the pulsometre for heartbeats per minute. These multi-scale dial watches were most popular during the Second World War and are highly sought after by collectors due to their technical appearance, usefulness, and general rarity. They were often accompanied by two registers that would show running seconds and a 30-minute counter for the chronograph.
