Patek Philippe Annual Calendar 4946R-001

Patek Philippe Annual Calendar 4946R-001

Unveiled at Watches and Wonders 2025, the Patek Philippe Annual Calendar Ref. 4946R-001 brings a warmer, more tactile expression to one of the brand’s most practical complications. Housed in a polished rose gold case and paired with a richly textured chestnut dial, this new reference builds on the Manufacture’s legacy of mechanical elegance with everyday usability. Featuring an intuitive tri-display layout and powered by the in-house calibre 26-330 S QA LU, the watch blends technical ingenuity with restrained design, reinforcing Patek Philippe’s commitment to timeless refinement and subtle luxury.


This model is housed in a polished 18k rose gold case, measuring 38mm in diameter and 11mm in thickness. The dimensions strike a balanced profile on the wrist, neither oversized nor dainty, offering a refined elegance suited for both formal and daily wear. The case is entirely gem-free, allowing the focus to rest on the richness of its finishing and the soft warmth of the gold tone.
On the reverse, the watch features a solid rose gold caseback, preserving a clean and classic profile. While it conceals the movement from view, the closed design maintains the refined silhouette and underscores the discreet nature of the piece. The restrained caseback aligns with the complication’s utilitarian philosophy: high-end functionality, not ostentation.It comes equipped with a fluted crown for setting the time and calendar indications, integrated seamlessly into the case’s silhouette. The lugs are gently curved for a comfortable fit, and the case construction ensures the elegance remains uninterrupted from every angle. All topped by a domed sapphire crystal with an overall curvature adding depth to the dial’s texture beneath. Water-resistance can reach up to 30 meters (100 feet).
Time is exhibited on a richly textured chestnut-brown dial finished with a double satin-brushed pattern, evoking the look of shantung silk. The dial’s vertical and horizontal brushing offers a dynamic, fabric-like effect that shifts tone depending on the lighting, ranging from deep espresso to warm caramel. Applied Arabic numerals and leaf-shaped hands in rose gold provide contrast against the darker background, with a clean, symmetrical layout that supports the watch’s functional purpose.
Calendar information is organized across three distinct locations for intuitive legibility. The day and month are displayed via subdials at 9 and 3 o’clock respectively, each using slender hands to mark the indication. At 6 o’clock, an arched aperture reveals the date, positioned directly above a moonphase display rendered with subtle shading and elegant proportions. This arrangement maintains harmony across the dial and reinforces the model’s daily practicality.
All hands and hour markers are treated with a white luminescent coating, ensuring legibility in dim environments without disrupting the warm tone of the dial. The restrained execution of complications and the balance between technical detail and visual elegance make the 4946R-001 a refined example of practical haute horlogerie.

Patek Philippe Annual Calendar 4946R-001

The “Patek Philippe Annual Calendar” (Ref#: 4946R-001) is powered by the in-house self-winding mechanical movement, caliber 26-330 S QA LU with 34 jewels, 319 components, and 28,800 vph. It features a 21K gold central rotor, a silicon Spiromax balance spring, and an annual calendar mechanism requiring adjustment only once per year. The integrated moonphase display remains accurate for 122 years before correction is needed, underscoring Patek Philippe’s blend of technical mastery and enduring precision. Power reserve can last up to 45 hours when fully wound.


Mounted on the watch is a chestnut calfskin strap embossed with a subtle denim-like pattern, secured to the wrist by a matching 18k rose gold prong buckle. The cream contrast stitching adds a relaxed yet refined touch, perfectly echoing the texture and tone of the dial. Supple and well-proportioned, the strap complements the 38mm case with understated elegance, offering a versatile balance between formality and casual sophistication.
