Does the Patek Philippe 5712 hold its value?
Yes, the 5712 is highly respected for its asymmetrical dial design, moonphase complication, and limited availability. As a more complicated alternative to the 5711, it attracts serious collectors. Its value has remained strong on the secondary market, especially for stainless steel and low-production gold variants.
Which versions of the 5712 are most valuable?
The stainless steel 5712/1A-001 is extremely popular, but white gold and rose gold versions – especially those on leather straps (5712G, 5712R) – can be even more valuable due to their rarity. Condition, original paperwork, and whether the watch is a full set can significantly affect final valuation.
What makes the 5712 different from the 5711?
While the 5711 is known for its simplicity, the 5712 offers more mechanical complexity, including a power reserve indicator, moonphase, and date subdial—all displayed in an asymmetrical layout. This added functionality and distinctive design appeal to collectors looking for something more intricate and refined.
Is there strong market demand for the 5712?
Yes. The 5712 remains in high demand, particularly as Patek Philippe scales back production of steel sports watches. The watch’s unique look, balanced complications, and connection to the Nautilus line ensure consistent interest from buyers worldwide.
Should I sell my 5712 privately or to a professional buyer?
Given the high value and complexity of the 5712, working with a trusted professional like The Watch Exchange London offers security and convenience. You avoid the risks and delays of private sales while gaining immediate payment, expert handling, and a smooth transaction process.
How can I verify the authenticity of my 5712 before selling?
To authenticate your 5712, check the serial and reference numbers, movement details, and dial layout against Patek Philippe specifications. Original documentation – such as the Certificate of Origin and service records – adds substantial credibility. For peace of mind, we offer free expert authentication and valuation in-house.
