Invented and patented by Patek Philippe in 1996, the ingenious Annual Calendar mechanism requires adjustment only once a year. The Annual Calendar has been produced in various models for both men and women in three gold and platinum finishes. However, a round Calatrava-style Annual Calendar model has never before been offered in stainless steel. The new Ref. 4947/1A-001 features a polished bezel in a 38 mm case that fits any wrist size, and is fitted with a new fully polished integrated bracelet with five rows of links and a fold-over buckle with four independent clasps.
