Patek Philippe: Grand Complications, 50 Years of the Nautilus, and Understated Elegance
Once a year, Patek Philippe makes a big splash. This year is no exception. At Watches & Wonders 2026, the Geneva-based manufacturer will present 20 new models as well as four limited editions to mark the 50th anniversary of the legendary “Nautilus.”
Patek Philippe – Grand Complications
When it comes to the pinnacle of watchmaking excellence, Patek Philippe has always been among the very best. In 2026, too, the Grand Complications will take center stage among the new releases.
Reference 6105G-001: Sunrise and sunset times
Carrying on the tradition of Patek Philippe timepieces with astronomical displays, the “6105G-001” offers an innovative reinterpretation. Featuring a 47-millimeter white gold case and a dial depicting the starry sky as seen from Geneva, this watch is the Manufacture’s first wristwatch to display the daily times of sunrise and sunset.
Your Caliber 240 C LU CL LCSO also features a patented system. When switching from daylight saving time to standard time, both the legal time and the corresponding sunrise and sunset times can be adjusted easily and simultaneously. This automatic movement is the result of more than five years of development work and has led to the filing of six patents. (MSRP €405,570)
Cubitus: Perpetual Calendar
The “Cubitus” collection, launched in 2024, now includes a model featuring a grand complication. The “Cubitus Perpetual Calendar Reference 5840P-001” is housed in a large platinum case measuring 45 millimeters in diameter. Its blue, openworked dial with laser-cut narrow slats offers subtle glimpses of the bridges and plates of the square, skeletonized 28-28 Q SQU movement. (MSRP €173,816)
Reference 5322G: Alarm
Patek Philippe is bringing the alarm function back into the spotlight. The new “5322G” model, featuring a 24-hour alarm, allows the wearer to be reminded of an appointment in an intuitive way. This timepiece combines a 41-millimeter white gold case with a guilloché “Clous de Paris” middle section and a textured, lacquered dial in blue or green. The alarm of the automatic caliber AL 30-660 S C stylishly sounds a signal as its hammer strikes a classic gong. (MSRP €260,724)
Calatrava Reference 7047G-001: Minute Repeater
The 38-millimeter white gold “Calatrava” case frames a navy blue dial, the center of which is adorned with a carbon motif. It thus follows the design of the stainless steel “6007” model, which was launched in 2019 to mark the inauguration of the Manufacture’s new production facility. This minute repeater is equipped with the automatic Caliber R 27 PS movement. It is distinguished by its slim profile, measuring just 5.05 millimeters in height. (MSRP €515,654)
Reference 5374/400P-001: Perpetual Calendar and Minute Repeater
Combining haute horlogerie and haute joaillerie, the “5374/400P-001” model features a perpetual calendar and minute repeater in a platinum case with a white Bali mother-of-pearl dial. This Grande Complication, powered by the automatic Caliber R 27 Q, showcases precious gemstones: diamonds and Paraíba tourmalines. (MSRP €4,171,577)
Reference 5204G-010: Split-seconds chronograph
With this model, Patek Philippe updates its split-seconds chronograph with perpetual calendar—in a version featuring a white gold case and a navy blue sunburst dial. The navy blue composite strap with a woven texture and contrasting red stitching gives this watch, powered by the CHR 29-535 PS Q caliber, an unmistakably sporty look. (MSRP €353,078)
Reference 5236P-011: Perpetual Calendar
Another complication from Patek Philippe is the Perpetual Calendar with a single-line display. It has been reinterpreted in the “5236P-011” model. Its understated elegance is accentuated by a platinum case with a silver dial. Behind the horological feat of the patented display of the day of the week, date, and month in a single row within a single elongated window at 12 o’clock lies the ultra-thin Caliber 31-260 PS QL with a platinum mini-rotor. (MSRP €144,615)
Reference 5270: Chronograph with Perpetual Calendar
Patek Philippe is also presenting a reinterpretation of its “5270” chronograph with perpetual calendar, featuring three new platinum models. The “5270P-015” features an anthracite-gray lacquered sunburst dial, the “5270P-016” a blue lacquered dial, and the “5270P-017” a red lacquered dial—all with a black gradient toward the outer edge. Its Caliber CH 29-535 PS Q movement, featuring a classic architecture, is equipped with six patented innovations in the field of chronograph functionality. (MSRP €230,596)
Reference 5396R-16: Automatic Annual Calendar
Patek Philippe presents its automatic annual calendar model, reference “5396,” as a classic and elegant timepiece featuring the automatic caliber 26-330 S QA LU 24H. The warm tones of the rose gold case harmonize with the luster of a sand-beige sunburst dial. (MSRP €62,574)
Reference 4946G-001: Annual Calendar
With the reference “4946G-001,” the Manufacture presents another annual calendar watch in white gold. The blue-gray dial features a double satin finish—both vertical and horizontal. It evokes the sheen of “Shantung” wild silk and pairs perfectly with the blue-gray calfskin strap featuring white contrast stitching. The sapphire crystal case back allows the finishing of the Caliber 26-330 S QA LU to be admired. (MSRP €56,664)
Reference 7129J-001: World Time Watch
In addition, Patek Philippe presents a travel watch with an extravagant touch. It combines a yellow gold case with a red lacquered dial featuring a hand-guilloché Vieux-Panier motif. The “7129J-001” model is powered by the Caliber 240 HU. With its mechanism patented in 1999, the times in all time zones can be adjusted simultaneously by simply pressing the pusher at 10 o’clock. (MSRP €53,304)
Patek Philippe – Understated Elegance
Not every watch needs a grand complication. Patek Philippe demonstrates just how much sophistication can be found in simplicity.
Calatrava Reference 5227: Minimalist
The Calatrava collection is introducing a new version of the Reference 5227 that will particularly appeal to purists. The understated design of the Reference “5227G-015” is highlighted by a fully polished white gold case measuring 39 millimeters in diameter. It features a concave bezel and curved, hollowed-out lugs. Applied Obus hour markers and faceted, anthracite-colored Dauphine hands in white gold, along with a date window and a central seconds hand, complement the opaline, rose-gold-colored dial.
The “Officier” case features a hinged back with a concealed hinge that, when opened, reveals the self-winding Caliber 26-330 S C. The strap is made of glossy chocolate-brown alligator leather and fastens with a white gold buckle. (MSRP €43,802)
Calatrava Reference 7200/50G
With the references “7200/50G-001” and “7200/50G-012,” Patek Philippe presents two “Calatrava” wristwatches designed for slender wrists. The 34.6-millimeter “Officier” case in white gold is available either with a sand-beige sunburst dial and a matching calfskin strap, or with an ice-blue sunburst dial and an alligator strap in mother-of-pearl ice blue.
The ultra-thin Caliber 240, featuring automatic winding and a decentralized mini-rotor crafted from 22-karat gold, is housed in an elegant case just 7.37 millimeters thick. (MSRP €34,880)
Golden Ellipse: A comeback in an ultra-slim design
Patek Philippe is reviving the “Golden Ellipse” collection with two new wristwatches: the “5738G-001” (34.50 × 39.50 mm) and the smaller “3738G/100G-014” (31.1 × 35.6 mm). Both white gold watches feature an olive-green sunburst dial. Applied baton indices in white gold and Cheveu hands create an aesthetic reminiscent of the 1970s.
The strap, crafted from glossy olive-green calfskin with cream-colored contrast stitching, features a white gold pin buckle. The ultra-thin Caliber 240, with its 22-karat gold micro-rotor, allows for a case thickness of just 5.9 millimeters—making these models the thinnest in the current collection. (MSRP €39,862 and €37,545)
Nautilus: 50 Years of Sporty Elegance
In 2026, Patek Philippe will celebrate the 50th anniversary of its iconic “Nautilus” collection with four limited-edition models.
Two white gold models, each 41 millimeters in diameter and 6.9 millimeters thick, are available either with a metal bracelet (reference “5810/1G-001”) or with a composite bracelet (reference “5810G-001”). The “5610/1P-001,” which is also 6.9 millimeters high, is a platinum model in a 38-millimeter case with a metal bracelet.
These three anniversary models display hours and minutes and impress with their slim profile. This is made possible by the ultra-thin automatic Caliber 240. This movement was introduced in 1977, one year after the launch of the “Nautilus” collection in 1976. (MSRP €86,908, €69,527, and €104,290, respectively)
As a tribute to the design by legendary watch designer Gérald Genta from the 1970s, the Manufacture is also presenting the “Nautilus” desk clock, reference “958G-001,” featuring an 8-day movement in white gold. (MSRP €237,549)
