Patek Philippe Annual Cal. Moonphase 5035G | 18k White Gold | Black Dial

A Legacy of Annual Calendar Mastery

Patek Philippe’s Annual Calendar is a defining moment in modern haute horlogerie — a patented ingenuity first codified by the Maison in 1996 that reduced the perennial burden of calendar correction to a single annual adjustment. The reference 5035G is an emblematic execution: an elegant, wearable expression of that technical leadership, marrying everyday practicality with horological gravitas.

The Hallmarks of a Patek Philippe Signature

• Reference Number: 5035G
• The Signature Complication: Annual Calendar with Moonphase — displays day, date and month with a moonphase indicator; requires correction only once a year (1 March).
• The Calibre’s Lineage: Self-winding movement rooted in Patek Philippe’s modern automatic calibre family, engineered to carry the Maison’s annual-calendar module introduced in the 1990s.
• Case Material and Diameter: 18k white gold; 37 mm.
• Dial Style: Black dial with the classical, balanced calendar apertures and moonphase — restrained, authoritative, supremely legible.
• The Patek Philippe Seal: Finishing and assembly consistent with the Maison’s exacting standards; presence of the Seal can be confirmed in the accompanying papers (watch includes original box and papers).

The Curator’s Insight:
The annual calendar is quietly brilliant: less mechanically demanding than a perpetual calendar, yet far more sophisticated than a simple calendar — it is the perfect marriage of utility and invention, a complication that rewards both daily use and lifelong stewardship.
