Reference 6002
Sky Moon Tourbillon
Caliber R TO 27 QR SID LU CL
Double-sided wristwatch,
12 complications.
Patek Philippe gives the Reference 6002 Sky Moon
Tourbillon a new look by combining the warm
glow of rose gold with a Grand Feu brown enamel
decoration. The double-faced case, crowns, slide
piece, hour/minute hands and fold-over clasp are
entirely hand-engraved with volutes.
The front dial combines Grand Feu champlevé and
cloisonné enameling. This exceptional timepiece,
the second most complicated Patek Philippe
wristwatch (12 complications), is delivered with a
pair of matching cufinks.

The Sky Moon Tourbillon Ref. 6002 appearance,
with lavish decorations elevates it to the status of a
grand creation. To refer to a case or a dial is almost
a sacrilege in the context of the Ref. 6002. Sculpture
would be the more tting term for a genuine work
of art like the Sky Moon Tourbillon. In particular,
it showcases two artisanal skills: the art of the
engraver and that of the enameler. Since the advent
of Geneva’s watchmaking heritage in the late 16th
century, both of these crafts have been inseparably
allied with watchmaking.
Recommendations
WATER RESISTANCE
Although your watch is equipped with a water-re-
sistant crown, it is not protected at all against the
ingress of moisture because of the slot for the
minute repeater slide.
Therefore, exercise care to ensure that liquid does
not come into contact with your watch.
SERVICE
We recommend that you have your watch ser-
viced at least once every ve years. For this pur-
pose, we suggest you take it to an Authorized
Patek Philippe Retailer who will send it to our
Geneva manufacture, the only location autho-
rized to service watches with minute repeaters.
You can then be assured that your watch will
be inspected and overhauled by a qualied mas-
ter watchmaker at Patek Philippe headquarters in
Geneva.
The master watchmaker will completely disas-
semble the movement and then inspect, clean,
and lubricate all the individual parts prior to re-
assembly. All functions of the watch will also be
tested in detail and the escapement regulated if
necessary. Finally, its rate accuracy will be moni-
tored and precision-adjusted for a further period
of at least two weeks.
The case and the buckle will be polished as per
your instructions and your watch will be returned
to you in mint condition. The entire process will
take several weeks because each watch must un-
dergo a complete series of tests to fulll the strict
quality criteria of Patek Philippe.
If you have any questions regarding the main-
tenance of your watch, contact the Authorized
Patek Philippe Retailer nearest to you or our In-
ternational Customer Service department in Ge-
neva, or visit www.patek.com.
WINDING
We advise you to wind the watch before you put
it on. This way, you can avoid lateral pressure
on the winding stem which, in the course of the
years, could damage the stem tube.
Make sure you wind the watch gently and uni-
formly. If you proceed too vigorously, you could
damage the movement and break parts, especially
toward the end of the winding process. To reduce
this risk, Patek Philippe has equipped some of its
manually wound watches, including the reference
6002, with a dynamometric crown. This patented
Patek Philippe innovation prevents damage to
the winding mechanism when the mainspring is
fully tensioned. When you hear a succession of
soft clicks, this indicates that the watch is now
wound. This clicking sound is absolutely normal
and indicates when you can stop winding the
watch.

Adjustments procedure
Please wind your watch by hand before correct-
ing any of the displays. To prevent damage to
your watch, perform all settings and corrections
involving the corrector buttons with the setting
stylus that was delivered with your Sky Moon
Tourbillon. All settings and corrections must be
performed in the specied order.
