Patek Philippe Annual Calendar Chronograph 5960 Steel Watch Replica

Patek Philippe released the new Patek Philippe Annual Calendar Chronograph 5960 watch at the 2014 edition of Baselworld. By way of background, when the 5960 originally made its debut in 2006 it was Patek Philippe’s first ever automatic chronograph, which meant it quickly caught the attention of collectors. Back then it was exclusively available in a gorgeous platinum case, putting it out of reach of all but the most affluent consumers. Subsequent dial variations followed in rose gold, however they have now all been discontinued in favour of the new Ref. 5960/1A.


Now this is of course good news for a several reasons. Firstly, if you are already fortunate enough to own an original Ref 5960 in a precious metal, you can rest easy in the knowledge that its value will only continue to increase exponentially over time. Secondly, and perhaps more importantly to the rest of us, Patek Philippe has just given a whole new audience – many of whom were previously priced out of this exclusive market – the opportunity to own one of its complicated timepieces.
So the end of the precious metal era of the 5960 picks up with the era of the high-end steel models. And what a way to introduce steel than with such a marvelous new dial. I am not always Patek Philippe's biggest fan but I offer praise where praise is due. Here we find a silvery opaline face with red accents and those marvelous black oxidized white gold hour markers and hands. I always take an opportunity to mention my appreciation of white-dialed sport watches. Patek gets it very right emphasizing both legibility and attractiveness.


White dials are all about high contrast when one wants to get it right. Black or dark colored hands and hour markers are necessary–and they are hard to get right much of the time. However, Patek Philippe's special technique in oxidizing white gold to make it black is highly effective in creating crisp, matte black elements that are both nice to look at and offer excellent dial legibility. The black and white dial mixed with the two added red chronograph hands makes for a highly contemporary dial that is unlike most Patek Philippe timepieces out there.
Patek Philippe originally debuted these types of black oxidized gold hands and hour markers in 2011 on the reference 5270 Perpetual Calendar Chronograph. They have proved so popular that since then there seems to have been at least one new Patek watch to feature these each year. For 2014, we get them on the 5960, which really alters the look of this watch–which itself has always proved to be a controversial design. In my opinion this is easily the most interesting and eye-catching 5960 watch yet.
