On the occasion of the Watches and Wonders Geneva 2022 show, Patek Philippe presents twelve new models, including a major technical debut – Ref. 5326G-001 Annual Calendar Travel Time. All the details about this watch, live photos and prices below.
Patek Philippe is for the first time combining the patented Annual Calendar and the Travel Time display system. The technical originality of this Annual Calendar lies in the fact that it always indicates the exact date for local time. In order to provide this original functionality, the engineers have developed a new self-winding movement, Caliber 31-260 PS QA LU FUS 24H, with a Travel Time mechanism controlling the Annual Calendar and enabling date correction in both forwards and backwards directions. Power reserve is 38-48 hours. No less than eight patent requests have been filed for this Caliber 31-260 PS QA LU FUS 24H, relating to elements improving precision, efficiency, reliability, security and user friendliness.
The Patek Philippe Annual Calendar Travel Time 5326G comes in a new Calatrava-type case made of white gold with a diameter of 41 mm, that is rimmed with a Clous de Paris hobnail guilloched pattern. This finish perfectly complements the watch and makes it more interesting and special. I love it a lot. The vintage-style dial is distinguished by its anthracite color and slightly grainy texture with a gradient effect on the outer edge.
This new reference is teamed with two interchangeable straps: one in beige calfskin with a nubuck finish and the other in black calfskin with an embossed fabric motif and beige topstitching.
The price of the Patek Philippe Annual Calendar Travel Time 5326G is 71,820 (including VAT). All details at www.patek.com
