To my knowledge started in 1996....
...and availlable in all three golds only - i.e. yellow, white and rose gold.
As far as I know, it's not "officially discontinued" yet - but.....that shouldn't be that far away.
Personally I'm not that fond of the Clous de Paris decoration, but have to admit that on this model
it looks very appealing. And the dial - is sheer beauty IMO 
I'm not sure I mentioned this already - but I like the brushed silvered dial even more than the opaline
of ref 3940 - 3940 case and 5039 dial would be a personal dream combination for me
Best regards

Patek 5039
Would somebody be kind enough to tell me which year the ref 5039 was introduced? was it ever produced in Platinum? is it already discontinued? Thank you kindly for your response.
