Patek Philippe Multi-Scale Chronograph Reference 5975G

Partially verified

The Patek Philippe Multi-Scale Chronograph Reference 5975G is a wristwatch released in 2014 to commemorate the brand's 175th anniversary. The timepiece is housed in a 40mm 18K white gold case featuring stepped lugs, dual paddle-style chronograph pushers, and a signed crown. The silvered dial is devoid of standard time-recording sub-registers, instead utilizing a central seconds hand to interact with integrated telemeter, pulsometer, and tachymeter scales. The dial is furnished with applied white gold indices and a white gold feuille-style handset. The movement is a modified, automatic Patek Philippe Calibre 28-520, which incorporates a vertical clutch and column wheel. The watch is secured to a black alligator leather strap with an 18K white gold deployant clasp. This specific reference was produced as a limited edition of 400 pieces in white gold.

Object description

Case and Dial Design

The Reference 5975G is encased in 18K white gold, measuring 40mm in diameter. The design includes stepped lugs and a sapphire crystal. The chronograph function is operated via dual paddle-shaped pushers located on the side of the case, alongside a signed crown. The caseback bears an engraving dedicated to the 175th anniversary of Patek Philippe, which occurred in 2014.

Instead, it utilizes the central seconds hand to measure data against three distinct scales: a telemeter, a pulsometer, and a tachymeter. Applied white gold indices mark the hours, while the time is read via white gold feuille-shaped hands.

Evidence for this section
  • “housed in a 40mm 18K white gold case with dual ‘paddle’ chronograph pushers, a signed crown, beautiful stepped lugs, and a sapphire crystal”
  • “Its silvered dial features applied white gold indices; telemeter, pulsometer, and tachymeter scales; and a white gold “feuille” handset”
  • “engraved caseback honoring the brand’s 175th anniversary in 2014”

Movement and Functionality

The watch is powered by a modified, automatic version of the Patek Philippe Calibre 28-520 chronograph movement. This movement utilizes a column wheel and a vertical clutch system.

Functionality is centralized; rather than using auxiliary registers to track elapsed minutes or hours, the pushers control the central seconds hand. This configuration allows for the measurement of pulses, speed, and distances from discrete events directly via the printed scales on the dial.
