Catalogue Essay
In 1995, Patek Philippe made history with the first self-winding annual calendar wristwatch ever produced. Awarded “Watch of the Year”, the reference 5035 was an immediate success with its revolutionary caliber 315 and the ability to adjust the calendar only once a year. In 1997, the brand released the reference 5036 with bracelet, power reserve at 12 o’clock, and the 24-hour indication replaced with a moon phase. These pioneering models are sought after for their contemporary appeal and ease in making the calendar adjustments simpler for the everyday wearer.
Discontinued in 2007, the present early watch from 1998 is a desirable example with black dial, luminous Roman numerals, moon phase, power reserve, and a refined white gold bracelet. The dial and white gold case complement each other with a sporty appeal and a rare Patek Philippe signature at 6 o’clock.
