Description
This watch was originally launched in 2011.
The reference 5235G is the first Patek Philippe watch to combine a regulator and annual calendar complication. Invented in 18th century England in an attempt to introduce more accurate timekeeping, the regulator is a rarely seen complication that remains technically interesting and aesthetically intriguing. This piece follows tradition by separating the three parts of the dial, with the minutes remaining part of the main watch face, while the two sub-dials for the hour and seconds divide the dial symmetrically.
The cal. 31-260 is the most substantially unique feature of the ref. 5235G. The movement, in any form or variant, is only found in the ref. 5235G. The calibre is still the only serially produced Patek Philippe movement with both a silicon escapement (Pulsomax) and hairspring (Spiromax).
