Notes
This model was inspired by the Patek Philippe Ref. 565 launched in 1938, much sought-after by collectors. In December 2006, Patek Philippe held a reception celebrating the re-opening of the Patek Philippe Salons and building in Geneva on the quai du Général Guisan and rue du Rhône, which had been closed for two years for renovation. There they announced the creation of two watches: Ref. 5105 in platinum and Ref. 5565 in stainless steel. Both watches were made in limited editions: 100 pieces for Ref. 5105; 300 pieces for Ref. 5565.
