Because of the growing interest by women for mechanical watches, Patek Philippe is today presenting new and purely feminine variations of its Annual Calendar. Maintaining its original 37 mm case size, the ladies’ version features a greatly refined dial. But, “in the same manner as a couturier would reinterpret a tuxedo for a woman,” the lines have remained nearly identical. The mother-of-pearl dial and diamonds give a very chic touch to a watch that still remains very much a Patek at heart.
The feminine version of the Annual Calendar is quite attractive with its yellow or white gold case, its bezel set with 156 round diamonds offset on two unequal rows, its natural white or Tahitian black mother-of-pearl dial with the applied Roman numerals and golden ‘leaf’ hands, and its alligator bracelet available in mat champagne or brilliant grey colours. The lunar phases are displayed at 6 o’clock, above the date. The caseback is also made of sapphire crystal.
