Patek Philippe Grand Complications 5940J-001 Perpetual Calendar Moon Phase Cushion Shape Yellow Gold White Dial (2015)

Patek Philippe’s Grand Complication perpetual calendars rank among the revered expressions of watchmaking, and the 5940 distinguishes itself through a rare, vintage-inspired cushion-shaped case seldom seen in the modern collection. This silhouette lends the grand complication a warm, elegant character unlike the brand’s round offerings. Beneath its slim profile lies an ultra-thin self-winding movement driving a perpetual calendar, tracking the date, day, month, and leap-year without adjustment until 2100. In yellow gold, it embodies sophistication and Patek’s unrivalled horological pedigree.

The cushion-shaped yellow gold 37 mm wide by 44.6 mm long case, with its rounded flanks and polished bezel, frames a silvered dial of warmth. Gold applied Arabic numerals ring the perimeter, while three subdials orchestrate the calendar: day with twenty-four-hour indication at nine, month with leap-year at three, and a pointer date encircling a moon-phase display at six. Gold hands sweep across the composition, and a brown alligator strap completes this union of complication and understated, vintage-flavoured charm.

*This timepiece comes with an additional caseback and the original hang tag.
