Catalogue Essay
Introduced in 2006, reference 5396 is an annual calendar upgrade of time-only reference 5296. Heavily influenced by masterpieces from the company’s rich history, the model’s case is inspired by the Calatrava cases of the mid-20th century, defined by simple flowing lines. The dial is instead inspired by a different vintage model - reference 3448 - from which it reprises the windows, indexes and moonphases disposition, the main difference being in the subsidiary dial: reference 3448 uses it for the display of the date, while in this instance it features a 24-hour indication, the date reassigned to a third window at 6 o’ clock.

The present pink gold with blue dial variation of immense charm was in production for only two years: from 2017 to 2018. This is the very first example to appear on the public market.
