The Patek Philippe Sky Moon Tourbillon is one of Patek’s most complicated wristwatches: a double-faced grand complication with a minute repeater, tourbillon, perpetual calendar and, on the back, a chart of the night sky. The original ref. 5002 debuted around 2000–2001 at a price reported near CHF 1 million, and the ornately engraved ref. 6002 succeeded it in 2013. Watches at this level are exceptional collateral: Borro lends up to 65% of a watch’s value, with funding in as little as one business day.

What Makes the Sky Moon Tourbillon So Complicated?
The Sky Moon combines four major complications in a wristwatch. The minute repeater chimes the time on cathedral gongs; the tourbillon offsets gravity’s effect on accuracy; the perpetual calendar tracks dates and leap years; and the reverse shows the night sky over Geneva, with the moon’s phases and orbit and sidereal time. When the 5002 launched, it had the most complicated movement Patek had made for a wristwatch.
From the 5002 to the 6002
Patek replaced the 5002 with the ref. 6002 in 2013. The new watch kept the same core functions but wrapped them in a hand-engraved case with an enamel dial and moved the calendar information into windows. Later 6002 versions include blue- and black-enamel dials and a rose gold Haute Artisanat edition.
Patek Philippe Sky Moon Price
Patek prices the Sky Moon Tourbillon on request and makes it in very small numbers. Former list prices for the 5002 were reported at about CHF 950,000 to 1.2 million, depending on metal. Secondary-market sales are rare, so any example needs a specialist valuation. Explore more Patek tourbillons and the wider Grand Complications collection.

The Sky Behind the Dial
Turn the watch over and the evening opens. The night sky over Geneva, laid out in a small, patient chart, with the moon’s phases and the slow arithmetic of sidereal time. It is the kind of detail that makes people go silent. Not because it is loud, but because it is so unnecessary, and so extravagantly well made.
Then you slide the repeater. Cathedral gongs sound the hour in the quiet of the room, a bright, resonant chime that seems to come from somewhere much larger than the case. A tourbillon turns beneath the dial, doing its small, invisible work against gravity. A perpetual calendar keeps track of the days so you do not have to.
A Sky Moon Tourbillon is not worn so much as inhabited. It is a watch you take out on the evenings that matter, to the dinners where someone leans over and asks what is on your wrist. You tell them. You turn it over. You let them look at the stars. The story takes care of itself.
Pieces at this level are made in very small numbers and are meant to stay with a family for generations. If you ever want liquidity without a farewell, Borro lends against fine watches. Yours rests in secure, insured safekeeping, remains yours, and is returned to you when you repay.
