Patek Philippe 1/10th Second Monopusher Chronograph 5470P-001

Patek Philippe unveils its first wrist chronograph for tenths-of-a-second short-time measurements with a new, very precise high-performance movement.

The manufacture reasserts its competence and innovative spirit in the field of short-time measurement: it presents a manually wound movement with two separate chronograph mechanisms and sweep hands. One of them indicates tenths of a second–precisely and very crisply. This high-tech high-frequency caliber (5Hz) with 31 patents, of which seven new patents are specific to the new mechanism, ticks in a platinum case with a  blue dial and red accents. Its sporty design emphasizes the highly technical and performance-oriented facets. With this tenth-of-a-second monopusher chronograph produced in small series – it is just as difficult to craft as a tourbillon, a minute repeater, or a split-seconds chronograph –Patek Philippe is delighting connoisseurs and enthusiasts with a new attraction in the domain of grand complications.
