A gorgeous Patek Philippe Annual Calendar Ref. 5035, crafted in 18k white gold, featuring the highly sought-after “salmon” dial, which has beautifully transformed over time from its original pinkish-orange tone into a rich burgundy hue with soft undertones of deep red and plum.

Released in 1996, Ref. 5035 was the world’s first annual calendar wristwatch. This self-winding timepiece is powered by the Caliber 315/198, and features day, date, month, and 24-hour indication. Its case is 37mm wide and has a sapphire crystal display back. This example is accompanied by its Patek Philippe 18k gold tang buckle. Circa 1990s.
