Patek Philippe has a long history of exquisite and complicated
timepieces. Their first serially produced perpetual calendar
wristwatches reach back to 1941 when the brand released the reference
1526, followed by other exceptional models like the references 2497 and
2438/1 introduced in 1951 as their first perpetual calendar with center
seconds. The reference 3448 released in 1962 was the first self-winding
perpetual calendar wristwatch, and was replaced in 1981 by the reference
3450 – their first serially produced perpetual calendar wristwatch with
leap year indicator. Patek Philippe introduced the reference 3940 in
1986, replacing the reference 3450, as a more modern, less angular
wristwatch considered by many enthusiasts as one of the finest examples
of a complicated timepiece with round case and micro-rotor-based
automatic movement. Its successor, the reference 5140, was introduced in
2006 and continued to use the prestigious caliber 240Q, however the
model was updated with a slightly larger 37mm diameter case, compared to
the 36mm of the reference 3940. Reference 5140 also introduced more
daring dial colors such as a brown dial fitted on the rose gold version
and a metallic blue dial on the platinum edition.
