  • Catalogue Essay

    First released in 2010, the Patek Philippe ref. 5726 was the first Nautilus reference to feature the firm’s signature annual calendar complication, which was first introduced in 1996 via the ref. 5035. Developed by Laurent Junod, technical director at Patek Philippe, the annual calendar only requires the wearer to adjust the calendar indications only once per year between February 28th or 29th and March 1st.

    Initially released in stainless steel with a grey dial and fitted with a leather strap, the perfectly symmetrical dial layout was quickly appreciated by collectors and in 2012, Patek Philippe released an example with a white dial. With both variants discontinued, Patek Philippe released the ref. 5726/1A-014 featuring a blue dial and a bracelet in 2019.

    Fresh to the market, the present example Patek Philippe ref. 5726/1A-014 from circa 2020 is offered with its Certificate of Origin and fitted presentation box with very minimal signs of use and wear.

Traditional and conservative designs are found across Patek Philippe's watches made throughout their history — the utmost in understated elegance.

    Well-known for the Graves Supercomplication — a highly complicated pocket watch that was the world’s most complicated watch for 50 years — this family-owned brand has earned a reputation of excellence around the world. Patek's complicated vintage watches hold the highest number of world records for results achieved at auction compared with any other brand. For collectors, key models include the reference 1518, the world's first serially produced perpetual calendar chronograph, and its successor, the reference 2499. Other famous models include perpetual calendars such as the ref. 1526, ref. 3448 and 3450, chronographs such as the reference 130, 530 and 1463, as well as reference 1436 and 1563 split seconds chronographs. Patek is also well-known for their classically styled, time-only "Calatrava" dress watches, and the "Nautilus," an iconic luxury sports watch first introduced in 1976 as the reference 3700 that is still in production today.
