The Patek Philippe Annual Calendar is a highly sophisticated watch combining technical ingenuity and ease of use, featuring complications that need to be adjusted only once a year.

Launched in 1996, it was the first wristwatch to offer an annual calendar mechanism, symbolizing a significant milestone in watchmaking history.
