Catalogue Essay
- The reference 5035 occupies a very special place in the history of watchmaking, as this was the first wristwatch to feature an annual calendar. Up until then, watches either featured a simple triple calendar - necessitating a correction at the end of each non-31-days-long month - or a perpetual calendar. In 1996, after years of research, Patek Philippe patented and launched with reference 5035 the hybrid annual calendar, necessitating only one correction per year, at the end of February. The complication went on to become a staple of the Patek Philippe production and is today employed in a variety of timepieces.
- The case design chosen for this milestone model is a very elegant and understated Calatrava style construction, directly derived from some of the most classic Patek Philippe timepieces such as ref. 96. The dial adds a touch of flamboyance to the ensemble, thanks to its asymmetrical subdials (the one at six o’ clock being smaller than the other two to accomodate for the date window), and luminous radial applied Roman numerals with matching luminous feuille hands.
- Single sealed, the present watch is accompanied by its Patek Philippe Certificate of Origin dated 2005, product literature, wallet, hang tag and setting pin.
