  • Catalogue Essay

    - In 1996, Patek Philippe patented the Annual Calendar complication, a new mechanism that considered the different lengths of the months and required only one annual adjustment in February. The legibility of the calendar functions were made easy thanks to the month and day that were indicated via two apertures on the top part of the dial whereas the date, moon phases and 24 hours indication were placed elegantly on the lower part of the dial.

    - In 2010, Patek Philippe made the daring decision to combine elegant complications with a sporty style by introducing a Nautilus that housed this clever and practical complication. Today, this reference is an important model within the history of Patek Philippe.

    - The present watch, an early variant of the model, is offered in excellent condition and is complete with its accessories. Blending fine complications, practical utility and sports chic, this 2010 model is a fantastic opportunity for collectors to acquire a nice specimen of this coveted and now discontinued reference.
