Introduced to the market in 1992, reference
5040 wristwatch was in production until
2007. The reference is recognized by its
distinctive tonneau-shaped case. The
present watch, encased in platinum, is
perfectly proportioned and fitted with
Breguet numerals, giving it a very classic
and sleek look. The majority of this
reference was manufactured in yellow gold,
with fewer pieces manufactured in other
metals, further enhancing the rarity of this
example in platinum. This is a very early
example due to the two-tone subsidiary
dial on the left and is fitted with a solid case
back, whereas the later versions comes with
a sapphire case back.
The present watch is fresh to the market.
