Ref. 5960P: Annual Calendar chronograph in platinum with a new dial…
This watch, combining two of the most popular horological complications (calendar and chronograph), has ranked among of Patek’s bestsellers since it was launched in 2006. This year’s third and newest addition to the collection has a vivid matte blue sunburst dial that is undoubtedly the defining element of this watch. Set against a platinum case, it really is splendid. I just can’t enough of it! The manufacture movement – an automatic, column-wheel chronograph (the CH 28-520 IRM QA 24H) – is all you would expect from Patek. The exquisite finishing of the movement with hand-chamfered steel levers and bridges as well as elegant Geneva striping deserve the exposure provided by the screwed case back with a sapphire crystal window. The hand-stitched, large-scaled blue alligator strap with platinum fold-over clasp completes the watch.
Just one of many fantastic new watches from Patek Philippe this year!
