The present watch , reference 5150 , was created to commemorate the relationship with Tiffany & Co ., which is its longest retailers and partner . Their relationship has started since 1851 and in order to celebrate the 150th year of business together , Patek Philippe has created the reference 5150 in a limited edition of 150 examples each in white gold , yellow gold and pink gold . This annual calendar wristwatch , cased in pink gold , features a big ‘ T ’ at 12 o ’ clock and ‘ Tiffany & Co .’ on the moon phases indicator , which gives a double seal of confidence . Thanks to their well-established relationship , Tiffany & Co . remains to be the only retailer today that has been granted the honour of printing their name on some of the Patek Philippe ’ s dials .
Fresh to the market , the watch also features a robust officer ’ s case that retains a somewhat vintage feel , further enhancing its desirability amongst collectors .
