Patek Philippe Annual Calendar 5396G-014

The Patek Philippe Annual Calendar 5396G-014 represents a refined synthesis of mechanical complexity and elegant design. Crafted in 18k white gold, its 38.5 mm case maintains graceful proportions that complement both formal and contemporary styles. Finely polished surfaces highlight the precious metal’s lustrous sheen, while the sapphire crystal caseback grants a clear view of the meticulously finished movement housed within.

At its heart lies the self-winding Caliber 324 S QA LU 24H, an ingenious mechanism that incorporates an annual calendar requiring just one adjustment per year. The dial arrangement is both classic and intuitive: twin apertures at 12 o’clock provide instantaneous readings of the day and month, while a moon phase and date subdial at 6 o’clock offers poetic charm and practicality. A discreet 24-hour indicator ensures easy differentiation between AM and PM hours, simplifying the setting of the calendar functions.

What sets the 5396G-014 apart is its richly hued dial, complemented by applied white gold Breguet numerals that evoke a timeless, traditional aesthetic. Elegant leaf-shaped hands glide effortlessly beneath the scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, ensuring clarity and distinction. Paired with a hand-stitched alligator leather strap and a white gold deployant buckle, this exquisite timepiece embodies Patek Philippe’s enduring legacy of craftsmanship, innovation, and subtle sophistication.
