Voted Watch Of The Year when launched at Baselworld in 1996, Patek Philippe's reference 5035 was the world's first self-winding calendar watch that required resetting only once a year.

An extremely important watch in Patek's history, the Annual Calendar was created to bridge the gap between the time only Calatrava and the more expensive Perpetual Calendar. The 37mm ref. 5035 breathed new life into Patek's line up, and paved the way for classic models likes the 5146, 5396, and 5960 that came after.

The sapphire crystal case-back displays the technically ground-breaking 315 S QA annual calendar movement. This 37mm 18ct rose gold model has been previously serviced by Patek and presented in excellent condition, fitted to a brand new brown Patek alligator strap with rose gold pin buckle.

The Patek Philippe Archive Extract confirms its sale in March 1998, this watch is accompanied by its previous Patek service history, pouch and our 2-year warranty.
