The Patek Philippe Chronograph 5172G-001 replica is the 41 mm hand-wound chronograph with a blue dial, not the annual calendar with moon phases named in the listing title. It follows Patek’s vintage two-counter layout: large applied Arabic numerals with luminous fill, small seconds at 9, a 30-minute counter at 3 and a tachymeter scale running around the edge, all printed white on blue. The case has stepped, grooved lugs and round pushers at 2 and 4 and sits on navy leather with cream stitching. It is steel with a polished white gold look; the genuine case is 18k white gold.

5172G Chronograph vs 5140 Perpetual Calendar: Which Complications Replica?

The listing title mentions an annual calendar with moon phases, but the 5172G is a chronograph: it times intervals up to 30 minutes on the counter at 3 and shows running seconds at 9, with no date, day, month or moon. If a calendar with a moon phase is what you want, look at the 5140-style perpetual calendar clones in stock: day and 24-hour hand at 9, month and leap year at 3, pointer date and moon at 6, in a case of 37.2 mm on the genuine 5140 against 41 mm here.

Does the 5172G super clone need winding every day?

Yes. Like the genuine Cal. CH 29-535 PS, the clone movement is hand-wound and has no rotor, so wind the crown each morning until you feel resistance; a full wind runs about 55 hours.

Is the case of this Patek chronograph fake made of white gold?

No. It is steel finished to look like white gold, while the genuine 5172G-001 is 18k white gold. In daylight the two look very close; the steel is lighter in the hand and a shade greyer.

Other Complications versions in stock: the 5172G-010 chronograph with a salmon dial on brown leather, the blue-dial perpetual calendar with moon phase in white metal and the rose gold tone perpetual calendar with a silvery dial. See the full Patek Philippe Complications replica collection.
