Patek Philippe 5036/1J Annual Calendar 18K Yellow Gold Silver Roman Dial

The Patek Philippe 5036/1J Annual Calendar is a distinguished member of the classic annual calendar lineage, first introduced in the late 1990s, and stands out in a full 18K yellow gold guise with a solid, integrated bracelet. Presented with a refined silver dial adorned by applied Roman numerals, the 5036/1J is exemplary of the Maison’s commitment to practical complications and enduring elegance. Its 37mm case strikes a harmonious balance between presence and refinement, designed for collectors who appreciate both modern wearability and vintage charm. The automatic movement powers an annual calendar that requires adjustment just once per year, underscoring the technical innovation for which Patek is renowned—most notably with the groundbreaking caliber 315 S QA LU. Enhancing its technical prowess, the 5036/1J features a moonphase and power reserve indicator, further elevating its horological significance. With only a limited period of production and full gold construction, this reference continues to be highly coveted among seasoned enthusiasts who value Patek Philippe’s blend of tradition, complexity, and restrained luxury. Its integrated bracelet provides an unmistakable visual continuity and period-specific flair, making it not just a pleasure to wear but a keystone for any serious calendar complication collection. As an icon of late-century Patek design, the 5036/1J embodies both investment-grade rarity and mechanical sophistication. Like New with Patek Philippe box, setting pin and papers dated 2005.
