Patek PhilippeAnnual Calendar

KEY FACTS

• The ref. 5235 is a truly unique offering within the Patek Philippe catalogue 
• ​Initially launched in 2012, it’s the first time the ‘Holy Trinity’ watchmaker has produced a regulator-style wristwatch, with the hours, minutes and seconds on separate registers 
• This rose gold variant measures 40.5mm in diameter, with handsome sharp lines inspired by the ref. 3448 Perpetual Calendar from the 60s, 70s and 80s
• ​The anthracite dial is nuanced with a vertical satin graining and contrasting sub-dials, apertures and minutes track
• The windows at 10, 2 and 6 o’clock display the annual calendar - a signature complication for Patek Philippe and a fitting addition to this unconventional reference 
• Internally, the calibre 31‑260 REG QA movement is bespoke and created specifically for the ref. 5235
• It’s elaborately decorated and can be viewed through the sapphire case back
• ​Signed with the Patek Philippe Seal, it’s embellished with a 22K gold micro-rotor 
• Attached to the case is a factory black alligator strap and signed rose gold pin buckle 
• ​This 2020 example is offered by a London-based private seller who purchased it new from an authorised dealer 
• Presented with a Patek Philippe display box, outer sleeve, certificate of origin, original purchase invoice, booklets, leather folder and rose gold date adjustment pusher 
• Graded ‘AA’ by the vendor who advises the watch is in unworn condition
