Description
As Patek Philippe’s first self-winding timepiece allying the chronograph and annual calendar complication, the reference 5960 quickly grasped the attention of collectors and became one of the most popular timepieces of the brand.
Encompassing the Patek Philippe in-house caliber CH28-520 IRM QA 24H made of 456 parts, the timepiece features through its dial a day, date and month aperture, a power reserve display and subsidiary dial for the chronograph function with a day and night indicator.
Released in 2006, the reference 5960 is Patek Philippe’s first annual calendar complication equipped with an automatic chronograph movement. Bold and eccentric, the reference 5960 incorporates a copious amount of functions on the dial, all well-executed with a modern approach. Three apertures on the upper edge display the day, date and month respectively, along with a power reserve indication right below the date. The “bull’s eye” chronograph counter resides at the bottom half along a very distinctive day and night indicator. A highly practical model, the reference 5960 is well celebrated for its contemporary and sporty design.
