Celestial Ref. 6105G
Patek Philippe has introduced the Celestial Ref. 6105G, a new wristwatch featuring a sunrise and sunset display, a complication previously seen only in rare Patek pocket watches and a few other brands' wristwatches. This model builds upon the brand's heritage of celestial-themed watches, incorporating elements from historical pieces like the Henry Graves Supercomplication.
The Celestial Ref. 6105G features a sunrise and sunset display, a complication previously exclusive to Patek Philippe pocket watches and rare wristwatches from other brands.
The watch's design lineage traces back to historical Patek Philippe pieces such as the 1933 Henry Graves Supercomplication, the Caliber 89, and the Star Caliber 2000 models.
The dial presents a view of the Northern Hemisphere sky over Geneva, with a rotating smoked sapphire disc depicting the sky and moonphase, overlaid by a static sapphire disc with a highlighted celestial vault.
Time is indicated by large, skeletonized hands, while two thinner hands point to the sunrise and sunset times on a spiked scale at the dial's edge, which also functions as a 24-hour scale for the date.
A T-shaped red hand indicates the date, and a small red triangle circling the dial represents the annual index for setting the sunrise/sunset complication.
The watch utilizes a lugless, integrated rubber strap, differing from the style found on the Aquanaut model.
