  • Catalogue Essay

    - Originally launched in 2006, the Patek Philippe reference 5960P embodies the first time Patek Philippe release a chronograph with calendar functions that are not perpetual. A milestone reference for the brand, inside the timepiece is powered by their first self-winding chronograph – the calibre CH 28-520, designed and manufactured completely in-house.

    - The chronographic subdial at 6 o’ clock incorporates both the minutes and the hours counters, rendering this the first time a 12-hour counter is incorporated in a Patek Philippe serially produced timepiece.

    - The first series of the reference, represented by the present watch, was in production until 2013. Adding to the allure of the watch, this piece features the historical Geneva Seal on the movement. As in 2009 Patek Philippe introduced their own seal, only examples from the early years of production bear the Geneva seal.

    - Offered in excellent overall condition, the present Patek Philippe annual calendar chronograph in platinum is sure to go down as one of the milestone pieces in the lineage of the firm.
