Overview

The Annual Calendar with the double aperture

The Patek Philippe Complications Annual Calendar, reference 5396R-011, in rose gold with a silvery opaline dial, rose gold 'obus'-style markers and dauphine-style hands, on a shiny chocolate brown alligator strap. Self-winding calibre 26-330 S QA LU 24H, Annual Calendar with moon phases and 24-hour indication; 38.5 mm, 11.2 mm high.

This rose gold execution carries a silvery opaline dial with faceted 'obus'-style applied hour markers and dauphine-style hands in rose gold, on a shiny chocolate brown alligator strap with a rose gold fold-over clasp. Patek Philippe no longer lists the reference in its current collection.

The reference 5396 is Patek Philippe's Annual Calendar with moon phases in the Complications collection, the layout with the day and month side by side in a double aperture at the top of the dial and the date in its own aperture at 6 o'clock, which the brand describes as one of its famous references and greatest successes. The case is fully polished, 38.5 mm across and 11.2 mm high. The watch has faceted dauphine-style hands in rose gold and an alligator strap with a fold-over clasp.

The self-winding calibre 26-330 S QA LU 24H carries the brand's Annual Calendar, a mechanism Patek Philippe describes as invented and patented by Patek Philippe, which needs a single correction a year, at the end of February. The day and month read together in the double aperture, the date below, and a 24-hour indication shares the sub-dial at 6 o'clock with the moon phases; the seconds sweep from the centre. The movement measures 33.3 mm across and 5.8 mm high, with 339 parts and 34 jewels, winds through a 21K gold central rotor, runs at 28,800 semi-oscillations an hour on a Gyromax® balance with a Spiromax® balance spring, has a power reserve of 35 to 45 hours, and carries the Patek Philippe Seal, seen through the sapphire crystal case back.

For collectors

The 5396 is the reference Patek Philippe calls one of its greatest successes among the Annual Calendars, on the strength of the double aperture; that is its account rather than a market statement.
