2017 Watch Review - Patek Philippe Chronograph Annual Calendar 5960/01g

This Patek Philippe Chronograph Annual Calendar 5960/01g is nothing but a revolution – at first. In fact, it has to be seen as part of the “new Patek”, which creates a few offset watches that talks to younger, more active collectors.Launched in platinum, then in white or pink gold, then gold and platinum was discontinued and replaced by steel, then a larger version comes with platinum again.

As all the previous editions of the 5960, meaning 40.5mm diameter x 13.5mm thickness – is the new dial. With this 5960/01g, Patek applies the same idea as with the Calatrava Travel Time Pilot 5524G, meaning a dark blue, grained varnished dial with white gold indexes. All of this is combined with a vintage-inspired, brown leather strap, with a pin-buckle instead of the usual deployant clasp.

Under the sapphire caseback is the well-known calibre CH 28-520 IRM QA 24H. This was the first integrated automatic chronograph movement of Patek, and since its introduction, it has also made its way into the Nautilus (although without the calendar indications). This movement has a modern architecture, with the chronograph and the self-winding mechanism being fully part of the movement (and not added on top of an existing movement, in a modular way). The chronograph features a flyback function, and is controlled by a column-wheel and a vertical clutch. It has a 4Hz frequency and it boasts between 45-55 hours of power reserve。
