While approaching the millennium, Patek Philippe had made many unprecedented breakthroughs for the development of modern wristwatches. The reference 5036 was one of them as it was the first ever annual calendar wristwatch to adopt the moon phase indication. Nowadays Patek Philippe introduced a new reference like the present lot, under the ref. 4947, that offers for the first time the Annual Calendar in a round Calatrava-type case in polished steel, with a diameter of 38 mm, which adapts to any wrist. This watch is equipped with a new bracelet with five rows of fully polished links. The reflections of the steel combine with an elegant midnight blue dial embellished with a double vertical and horizontal satin finish. The Patek Philippe patented Annual Calendar requires only one correction per year. Extremely functional for everyday use, the present watch is sold with the certificate of origin confirming its sale on the 2nd of August 2021, leather wallet, box and booklets.
