The reference 5039J, in yellow gold and dating to around 2000, captures the best of 1990s Patek in a case that is elegant, architectural and refreshingly wearable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 5039 is often overlooked and is far scarcer than its predecessor, the reference 3940. It is thought to have been produced in roughly 1,200 examples, with yellow gold accounting for about 500 of them. The dial layout follows the 3940: a silver dial with day and month subdials, a leap year indicator, a moon phase and a date ring that curves around the bottom of the dial. Applied gold batons, fine sword hands and serif calendar numerals keep the face calm and legible despite the complication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets the 5039 apart is its case. A stepped, two-row hobnail bezel frames the dial, and long, straight, well-defined lugs give the watch a stately, upright profile. At 35 x 41.5mm and just 8.5mm thick, it sits slim and close to the wrist. The case appears unpolished, with sharp edges and crisp hobnail texture still intact. Inside is the caliber 240Q, the micro-rotor automatic movement shared with the 3940, which can be admired through the sapphire caseback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a dressy complication that still feels at ease with a sweater and jeans, and a worthy anchor for any serious watch collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Patek Philippe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: Perpetual Calendar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReference: 5039J\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCirca: 2000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCase: 18k yellow gold, 35 x 41.5 x 8.5mm, two-row hobnail bezel, sapphire caseback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMovement: Caliber 240Q automatic with micro-rotor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDial: Silver with day, month, leap year and moon phase indications, Swiss signature at 6 o'clock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrap: Leather strap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Switzerland\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePre-owned condition.
