PATEK PHILIPPE

Launched in 2015 as a platinum model, then in rose gold in 2019, the latest Ref. 5905/1A-001 combines two practical complications: a self-winding flyback chronograph and a patented annual calendar. The sought-after model is reinterpreted in its very first sporty steel version featuring an integrated steel bracelet. The dial flaunts a new elegant and modern sunburst olive green, which ensures great legibility for the additional functions, a central chronograph hand, large 60-minute subdial at 6 o’clock and three day/date/month apertures arranged in an arc for instant reading of the annual calendar indications. There is also a day/night indicator at 6 o’clock, which is useful for ensuring accurate date setting. The polished 42mm steel case features a sophisticated construction with a concave bezel and recessed sides. Visible through an exhibition caseback, calibre CH 28-520 QA 24H remains faithful to the traditional column wheel for the transmission of chronograph commands. The patented annual calendar automatically requires only one correction yearly, on Mar 1.
