EXTRA TIME

Even after Watches & Wonders came to a close, the watch reveals did not stop, as Patek Philippe demonstrated with the surprise addition of the Ref. 5470P-001. This is not an afterthought for the Genevan brand because this is the first 1/10th of a second Chronograph for Patek Philippe, and it has the first use of the full silicon escapement assembly (hairspring, balance and anchor) in a regular production watch.
