On the watch’s underside, a sapphire case back displays the calibre 324 S QA LU movement.

The watch is fitted to a Patek Philippe alligator strap with a white gold Patek pin buckle.

The Annual Calendar watches are an important part of Patek Philippe’s catalogue, as the company is credited with inventing the complication in 1996. The ladies’ version is an extension of the model line, offering a more opulent finish while maintaining all of the technical credentials.
